Carson Liggett is giving K-State a veteran bullpen weapon after Tommy John surgery
In the 2026 season, Liggett has emerged as a trusted right-handed arm for Kansas State after missing all of 2025 with Tommy John surgery, piling up scoreless outings and earning a National Pitcher of the Year watch-list nod. He’s shown a strong fastball/breaking-ball mix, attack-the-zone poise, and the kind of veteran calm coaches love in leverage innings. If your team wants a mature, strike-throwing RHP who can steady a game and miss bats without much drama, Liggett looks like a very good fit.
