Looking At Wallace
Wallace was picked in the 3rd round of the 2019 MLB Draft by the Colorado Rockies out of Connecticut.
He has also spent time with the Boston Red Sox and Kansas City Royals organizations.
Brendan Campbell of SoxProspects.com wrote (on November 26, 2025): “Methuen, Mass. native and former Red Sox pitching prospect Jacob Wallace signed a minor league contract with the Braves on Wednesday, per his transactions page. The 27-year-old RHP spent the last three seasons in the Royals org. after being traded for Wyatt Mills in Dec. 2022.”

Wallace could be a good addition to another organization in need of pitching depth.
