Ryan Schaffnit is a big-frame Bradley arm with swing-and-miss upside and real growing pains
In the 2026 season, the 6-foot-6 freshman right-hander flashed impact stuff for Bradley, including a 3.1-inning scoreless relief win against Belmont and a three-inning, six-strikeout stint at Gardner-Webb; he also showed volatility early, which is normal for a young arm adjusting to Division I hitters. The appeal is the size, the strikeout potential, and the ability to work in either relief or longer outings, while the question for a staff is consistency and command. He looks like a high-upside fit if you can be patient and develop him.
