Missouri commit, INF/RHP Cole Ruggeri (Waubonsie Valley, 2026) did not disappoint in our staff’s first look since the 2022 PBR Junior Future Games. Ranked No. 6 in the state and No. 127 overall, Ruggeri is an athletic mover on the mound with all kinds of ease and fluidity paired with advanced arm-speed. His fastball sat in the upper-80s while topping out at 89.7 mph with arm-side run (avg. 15.2” HM) and carry through the zone. Arguably his best off-speed pitch was his changeup which sat 70-74 mph with swing-and-miss traits and clear fade to the arm-side (avg. 14” HM). His curveball sat 69-71 mph with 11/5 shape and future projection. At the plate, the right-handed hitter swings with intent, staying through the ball with extension while working on the barrel up the middle, reaching up to 94.3 mph for his max EV while averaging 90 mph, reaching up to 351’ for his max distance.

Naperville brought some talent to the tournament this weekend. Highlighted by RHP Cole Ruggeri who ran his fastball up to 83 mph, one of the events fastest. He also mixed in sharp, 10/4 breaker and a changeup that flashed run. Ruggeri is an athletic mover on the mound and couples it with a loose, clean arm action that should only improve as he gets older.
