Connor Grotyohann is a two-way weapon with real 2026 upside for Rhode Island
Connor Grotyohann gives Rhode Island a legit two-way wrinkle: the 6-foot-4 redshirt junior has earned a John Olerud Two-Way Player of the Year watch-list nod in 2026, has worked in both the outfield and on the mound, and has already shown he can miss bats and deliver timely offense. In 2026, he’s carved out a meaningful role early, including a strong relief outing at Quinnipiac and a win over New Haven, while also contributing key hits and RBIs. If you want versatility, competitiveness, and a player who can impact games in multiple phases, he fits the bill.
