LHP Tanner Rogers (Monmouth United, 2025) left last week’s event an uncommitted name-to-know after an impressive showing on the mound. A simple and clean delivery, Rogers’ velocity has ticked up since seeing him last summer. His fastball sat at 84-86 mph with easy and mostly straight actions. He mixed in two breaking balls, with his slider looking like his best of the two, sitting 68-70 mph with an average of 16.4” of horizontal movement. To round out his four-pitch mix, he showed a mid-70s changeup.
