Karyme Amaya is a depth piece with speed upside for NMSU
In the 2026 season, New Mexico State catcher Karyme Amaya has been a small-sample contributor, appearing in nine games and going 1-for-5 while also working as a pinch runner and pinch hitter for the Aggies[1][2]. Her calling card is versatility and aggressiveness on the bases—she already has collegiate stolen-base experience and has been used in high-leverage “spark plug” spots, which suggests the staff trusts her energy and game awareness[1][8]. If your team wants a catcher with upside, hustle, and role-player flexibility rather than a finished middle-of-the-order bat, Amaya fits that profile well[1][3].
