6'6” RHP Chase Schwierking brings upside and projection to CMU’s mound mix
Chase Schwierking is a redshirt freshman right-hander at Central Michigan in 2026, and the appeal is obvious: he’s a big-bodied 6-foot-6, 220-pound arm with multi-sport toughness and a projectable frame that usually screams future velocity. Central Michigan lists him as a right-handed pitcher, and high-school recruiting notes described him as athletic and projectable with a fastball that touched 90 mph. He did not play in 2025, so the key question is how his stuff and strike-throwing hold up once he gets innings—very much a watch-this-space kind of arm.
