Peyton Tanner brings Baylor a workhorse arm with bite
In the 2026 season, Baylor pitcher Peyton Tanner emerged as a reliable, high-leverage arm, leading the Bears with 38 appearances and eight complete games while ranking among the Big 12’s top 10 in strikeouts with 97. Her calling card is durability with swing-and-miss upside: she logged a team-high four saves, posted multiple dominant outings, and delivered a nine-strikeout gem against Northwestern State. She looks like a fit for teams needing a tough, versatile right-hander who can start, finish, and handle pressure without blinking.
