2025 Fantasy Outlook

When he was not busy being the back seater for Phoenix in a F-35, Bob was mashing at the plate in recent seasons. The former Wake Forest Demon Deacon took his mashing to the minor leagues and capped it off with a 30-homer season in Durham. That came on the heels of a 28-homer season between Double-A and Triple-A the prior season. The club knew Big Bob could hit for power, but his strikeout rate remained suboptimal throughout, and the club decided to promote the bat to see what would happen at the major league level around injuries and opportunity with the 26-man roster. Seymour's debut went as feared or expected as he struck out in 38.6% of his 83 plate appearances with just one home run - albeit a well-struck one off Luke Weaver on August 20th. Seymour is now 27 years old and his inability to make better contact is likely preparing him for a path to overseas baseball or living as a Triple-A lifer bouncing around organizations the next few seasons. His one redeeming skill is he can still scald a baseball, when he actually makes contact. Read Past Outlooks

The Rays released Seymour on Wednesday so that he could pursue an opportunity to play in Asia.

Analysis
Tampa Bay designated Seymour for assignment Thursday, and rather than looking for another opportunity with an MLB club, the 27-year-old will take his talents across the Pacific Ocean. Seymour posted a .535 OPS in 83 plate appearances with the Rays in 2025, but he slashed .263/.327/.553 with 30 homers, 87 RBI and 70 runs scored across 105 games at Triple-A Durham.
