6-foot-4 USC freshman RHP Rohan Kasanagottu brings a power arm, split-finger bite, and legit prep pedigree
In the 2026 season, Rohan Kasanagottu looks like a high-upside bullpen weapon for USC: a 6-foot-4 right-hander from Valley Christian HS who arrived with strong prep credentials, including a 0.85 ERA as a senior and recognition as California’s No. 24 RHP by Perfect Game. He’s been described as a fastball-splitter-curveball guy, and USC used him in meaningful postseason relief, where he logged 1⅔ perfect innings with two strikeouts against Texas A&M. If you want strike-throwing stuff with room to grow, he’s absolutely worth a look.
