Hayden Neihoff brings strike-throwing upside to Marist’s rotation
Neihoff looks like a **developmental right-handed starter** with real upside: at Indiana State in the 2024 season, he made 16 starts, went 7-2 with a 3.81 ERA, and struck out 91 batters in 78 innings, then was drafted by the Reds in the eighth round before joining Marist.[7][2] His calling card is swing-and-miss ability and starter’s workload, and a 2024 high-school outing showed he can handle tough lineups when he’s in rhythm, striking out seven over five innings against a strong opponent.[5] For a team seeking a competitive, proven arm with rotation experience, he’s a compelling fit.[7][2]
