Owen Graf brings a power arm and real upside to Ohio State’s rotation
In the 2026 season, Owen Graf logged 10 strikeouts in 5.1 innings across four mound appearances before an injury ended his year, a small sample that still points to a live right arm and swing-and-miss stuff.[1] The 6-foot-4 Toledo product arrived with serious credentials after going 8-1 with 90 strikeouts, a 1.40 ERA, and a Division II state title in 2025, and evaluators have praised his projectable frame, calm delivery, and explosive arm action.[1][2] He looks like a strong fit for teams that value upside and strike-throwing development, with the only real caution flag being the injury interruption and limited college workload so far.[1][2]
