Freshmen pitchers standing out for 2027 and 2028 Drafts 2026 is providing more impactful innings from freshmen arms than most normal years

The 2027 and 2028 Drafts aren't too far away. These freshman phenoms slipped through the cracks into college baseball after going undrafted/unsigned in the 2025 Draft.

Now, they're dominating, and elevating their profiles. Scouts and analysts are taking notice.

2026 MLB Draft Show - Jake McCoy
YouTube video by Over-Slot Baseball 2026 MLB Draft Show - Jake McCoy

A month ago, South Carolina LHP Jake McCoy tore his UCL... just 3 weeks before opening day. It was a devastating blow for a player receiving first round evals and seeming to find his way.

But through this, more than anything, perspective has been gained.

Jacob Dudan is reinventing himself and his future NC State fireballer Jacob Dudan is determined to prove he's a starting pitcher, and he seems to be right

NC State fireballer Jacob Dudan isn't a reliever anymore. That's quite clear. He wasn't going to let preconceived notions about his profile stymie his development.

Now, he looks like one of the bigger surprises in college baseball. And a bonafide draft prospect.

Early draft-eligible exit velocity standouts Bat speed and exit velocities light up draft models. Who is thriving?

These guys are absolutely annihilating baseballs. Their exit velocities are jaw-dropping.

It's a small sample, sure, but if these guys keep deleting baseballs like they have, they're going to light up draft models.

A handful of guys already flashing big data.

Huntington Beach outfielder/left-handed pitcher Jared Grindlinger has re-classified up in 2026.

RHP Coleman Borthwick may be considered one of the top high school pitching prospects in the 2026 class, but he can mash too.

Hit .303 last summer with one of the best Air PULL% in the country.

He smoked his first homer of the year tonight.
