Big-framed Wright State lefty flashing starter upside
In the 2026 season, Brody Papay has worked as a young left-handed arm for Wright State, posting a 4.70 ERA across 15.1 innings with 15 strikeouts and just 12 hits allowed, while also showing some command growth to watch. He stood out as a 6-foot-4, 215-pound freshman with a long, projectable frame, quick arm speed, and an over-the-top delivery, the kind of traits that can play up in a rotation or multi-inning role. He’s a fit if you want a high-upside arm you can develop rather than an instant finished product.
