Tyler Albanese is emerging as San José State’s high-leverage righty with real late-inning upside
Tyler Albanese enters the conversation as a proven leverage arm for San José State after a 2025 breakout: 22 appearances, a 2.97 ERA, 56 strikeouts in 39.1 innings, and nine saves, which tied for the third-most in a season in program history. He was named Second Team All-Mountain West and All-Tournament Team, and evaluators praise his low-to-mid-90s fastball, swing-and-miss profile, and poise in wood-bat settings after a strong Cape Cod League run. He looks like a good fit for teams needing a competitive, strike-throwing late-inning reliever with upside.
