Owen Wilde, Helias Catholic High School (MO), 2028
Positional Profile: RHP/2B Solid 2028 right-handed arm with a well-rounded pitch mix and the traits to develop into a mid-major level pitcher.
Body: 5-10, 164-pounds. Athletic, compact frame with present strength and room for continued physical development.
Delivery: Fluid delivery with good tempo and an athletic, compact finish. Works down the mound well with a slight crossfire and maintains good body control through release.
Arm Action: RH. High 3/4 arm slot with good separation and layback. Arm action works cleanly and efficiently.
FB: T87, 85-87 mph. Fastball shows good arm-side run with moderate vertical life and excellent spin efficiency. Attacks the zone effectively and should play well off the right-handed delivery. T2127, 1968 average rpm.
SL: 68-70 mph. Firm slider with good depth and horizontal movement. Above-average spin and strong strike-throwing ability make it a useful secondary offering. T2346, 2163 average rpm.
CH: 72-77 mph. Changeup shows useful separation from the fastball with arm-side movement and moderate vertical life. Strong strike-throwing profile with the potential to be an effective third pitch. T1488, 1420 average rpm.
ATH: 6.60 runner in the 60. 1.64 and 3.74 in the 10 and 30 yard splits.

Another standout performance on the mound from a Missouri arm came from RHP/INF Owen Wilde (St. Elizabeth, 2028). Wilde shows plenty of promise in an athletic, compact frame, running his fastball up to 82 mph in this look while also being up to 84 mph in other looks earlier this spring. What stands out the most about the incoming freshman is the maturity in his ability to command both sides of the zone with his curveball/changeup mix. At the plate, Wilde also swung a quick, right-handed barrel, posting a peak exit velocity of 88.6 mph for good measure.
