Big frame, big strikeout track record, and a proven late-game weapon for WVU
In the 2026 season, the 6-foot-7 right-hander was one of West Virginia’s most dependable arms, going 4-0 with a 3.09 ERA and 34 strikeouts in 35.0 innings, including two scoreless College World Series outings. Estridge’s calling card is simple: he misses bats, handles leverage, and brings a long, imposing look that’s tough on hitters. Over four WVU seasons, he piled up 165 strikeouts in 151.0 innings, tied for the most appearances in program history, and earned All-Big 12 honorable mention before signing with the Astros, so yes—this is a high-upside, battle-tested arm worth caring about.
