Fordham’s Big-Frame Reliever Who’s Quietly Been a Run-Saver
In the 2025 season, Koen Smith emerged as a dependable Fordham bullpen piece, appearing in 22 games all in relief and going 2-3 with a team-best four saves and 31 strikeouts; he was also named to the CSC Academic All-District team. The 6'4" right-hander’s appeal is simple: he gives the Rams leverage innings, can finish games, and has shown the poise to slam the door with runners aboard—like striking out the final two Dayton hitters to lock up a save. If you want a strike-throwing, late-inning competitor with upside, he’s worth a look.
