RHP Tadgh Callaghan (Brother Rice) is a name to know in the class and he has thrown a number of quality, important innings for Brother Rice, especially as an underclassman. In this bullpen, he showed much of what we have seen in the past, a competitive presence on the mound, a high-volume of strikes and a four-pitch mix. His fastball sat 84-86 mph while his slider and cutter both have action to the glove side while killing spin and showing feel for an above-average changeup.

8/01/24

3B/RHP Tadgh Callaghan (Brother Rice, 2025) 5-foot-11, 200-pound frame, dominated on the mound during Sparks North-Black’s 8-0 win Friday morning. The right-hander went an efficient five innings and struck out three, all swinging, while giving up no runs and one hit. Displayed feel for a four pitch mix, consistently creating uncomfortable swings and at-bats. Presented a ¾ arm slot, deep back leg sink, explosive push off, in-line stride, uphill tilt, and a repeatable motion from the windup and stretch. Fastball had life and sat from 82-84 mph. 2/8 curveball was spun effectively at 72-74 mph. Slider was tight and used as a putaway pitch at 76-77 mph. Changeup showed arm-side run and dive at 73-75 mph. A quality outing from the uncommitted Callaghan, Illinois No. 175 overall ranked prospect.

5/11/23

Uncommitted. 5-foot-11, 200-pound, strong, compact, right-handed pitcher. Got the start for Brother Rice. Competed throughout and picked up the hard-earned win, going six innings, scattering five hits, one earned run, four strikeouts and no walks. Compact, on-line delivery, repeats. Long arm action, ¾ slot. Showed a three-pitch mix but challenged with a high-volume of strikes. Was mostly 84 mph early with the fastball, T86 and settling in at 81-84 mph. Fastball works at the bottom of the zone with heaviness and sink. Goes to a sweeping breaking ball at 71-72 mph with above-average feel and 10/4 shape. Also flashed a changeup at 79-80 mph.

8/10/22

RHP Tadgh Callaghan (Brother Rice, 2025) had a strong showing throughout his gameplay with a quality three-pitch mix. The 5-foot-11, 200-pound right-hander pitched at 81-83 mph, topping out at 84 mph. He went to a slider at 73 mph and changeup at 75-76 to pair off his fastball. The 2025 struck out three and did not allow a run in his three innings of work at the event.

8/09/22

Positional Profile: RHP
Body: 5-11, 200-pounds.
Delivery: Up-tempo delivery, quick leg-lift into a medium balance point, drop/drive lower-half that maintains knee bend throughout stride, stride works in-line with the plate.

RHP Tadgh Callaghan (Brother Rice, 2025) is a 5-foot-10, 190-pound right-hander with impressive arm-strength for his age. With a short, high ¾ arm slot, Callaghan utilizes a compact delivery down the mound, working with a drop/drive lower-half to create power. His fastball sat primarily 80-82 mph, reaching up to 83 mph while riding through the zone with arm-side life, also thrown for strikes. Callaghan then went to a sharp breaking ball, thrown with fastball arm-speed at 69-71 mph off an 11/5 plane with depth. He also showcased a changeup that shows potential to be a weapon in the future, diving hard to the bottom of the zone at times while sitting in the 74-75 mph range.
