Nationals 2024 1st-rounder validates selection with All-Arizona Fall League campaign
"The Arizona Fall League plays in an abbreviated season. King played (18) Games, but his statistics were commendable. He had a stellar batting average of (.359) and an OPS of (1.031). King found 8-of-21 hits to be extra base hits with (2) Home Runs. He added (11) Walks, but did strikeout (15) Times on (79) Plate Appearances, or a 19% K-Rate, including walks."
"King played (125) MiLB Games this season, split as (80) Games in AA-Harrisburg and (45) Games in A+-Wilmington. He combined for a (.244) Batting Average and (.631) OPS. He had (25) Extra Base Hits, being 20% of all Hits. King also had a K-Rate of 22%. By all accounts, King struggled a bit in his 2025 season. However, his career is young and very raw."
"King has come into the MLB as a first round pick by the Nationals in 2024. His scouting report labels King as a well-rounded hitter with an ability to spray the ball around the field. He has much potential to gear his game however he, and management wants. His hitting is meant to be his long-term strong suit, but he will be more of a contact hitter and less of one of power."
Seaver King earned All-Arizona Fall League Team recognition as the leading shortstop after hitting .359 with a 1.031 OPS in 18 games, including two home runs and eight extra-base hits. He logged 79 plate appearances with 11 walks and a 19% strikeout rate. During the 2025 minor-league season King played 125 games across AA Harrisburg and A+ Wilmington, hitting .244 with a .631 OPS, 25 extra-base hits, and a 22% K-rate. Scouts view King as a young, well-rounded, contact-oriented hitter with athleticism and long-term hitting potential, though he remains raw and not MLB-ready yet.
