Colton Baron (Siegel, 2026) Baron has seen his stock steadily climb over the last year where he initially jumped on my radar at a late fall showcase event where he showed the arm action and the body fluidity. At 6 foot 2 and 200 pounds, Baron is far from a finished product from a development standpoint but shows good signs of an early floor and progression that surely will continue in his high school career. He pitches with an air of confidence and belief in himself, while truly giving his team a shot to win every game he takes the hill. He was lights out against Oakland, where he flashed the pitchability and command of three pitches. The fastball was hot early where he sat 86-87 to start the game before settling into 83-85, with a handful of 86’s throughout the course of 7 innings with late come back arm-side run. The curveball showed late breaking bite that had hitters consistently swinging over it and showed confidence commanding it as a strike in the lower quadrant, while also expanding the zone away to right-handers off the plate. His changeup may already be his best weapon where he has feel with his release point in congruent with his landing to start it off the plate and allow it to work back against righties, while also showing command to work it away against lefties. The upside is clearly there and is just starting to come into his own with realizing how good he can be. I also love that he isn’t overthrowing and just out there pitching and wouldn’t be surprised to see the velocity steadily climb over the next few years. He is a very high follow for college coaches looking to start their initial list of 26’s to see.

Colton Baron, Siegel (TN), 2026
Positional Profile: RHP/OF
Body: 6-1, 175-pounds. Long limbed frame with present strength and mass in his lower half. Proportional build.
Delivery: Really calm delivery that has advanced arm speed with late action that works to get on top of hitters. Blocks his lead leg extremely well allowing his front side to shoot over with extension.
Arm Action: RH. Really quick arm action that stays tight to his body while also being long and creating seperation. Works in sych with his hip turn/ leg drive.
FB: T86, 85-86 mph. Fastball carries late life that stays pretty true on plane with late run. Will play well down in the zone, as well as in to righties. T2288, 2122 average rpm.
CB: 69-70 mph. CB has big break to it, more horizontal action to it. Will get weak contact and bad swings out of the zone with it. Shows good spin and will continue getting better. T2254, 2218 average rpm.
CH: 77-79 mph. Kills spin effectively off his fastball. Offers late biting fade but believe that there is more horizontal movment in there. Shows feel for command and ability to use it in game. Consistent arm speed. Bottom falls out, should be primary pitch for him. T1644, 1501 average rpm.
