Luke Saunders brings spin, feel, and strike-throwing upside to Texas State’s staff
In the 2024 season, Luke Saunders was a ranked Texas prep arm who stood out for a clean delivery, a fastball around 87-89 mph with late life, and a sharp breaking ball that showed real spin; his changeup also flashed usable feel in the zone. Texas State’s roster lists him as a sophomore right-handed pitcher, but no 2026 game stats were available, so the best read is upside rather than production. He looks like a fit for a team that values pitchability, development, and competitive strike-throwing more than pure velocity.
