USC’s late-inning hammer out of the bullpen
In the 2026 season, Troy was USC’s closer, posting 12 saves with a 4.28 ERA in 31 relief appearances, striking out 39 while holding opponents to a .219 average; his 12 saves tied for sixth-most nationally. He’s a hard-throwing right-hander with real ninth-inning poise, enough strikeout juice to miss bats, and the kind of competitive edge teams love in leverage spots. If you need a short-relief finisher who can slam the door and handle pressure, Troy looks like a strong fit.
