UCLA’s steady, high-contact RBI engine with real draft juice
In the 2026 season, Roman Martin emerged as one of UCLA’s most reliable run-producers, starting all 60 games at third base and earning First Team All-Big Ten honors after a breakout .333/.446/.549 line with 54 RBIs and 42 walks. He stands out for advanced plate discipline, consistent hard contact, and postseason poise, plus enough defensive versatility to stay on the left side of the infield. He was also a 2026 MLB Draft pick, which tells you the industry sees a polished bat, not just a stat line.
