Caleb Herd gives New Mexico a gritty, switch-hitting-style catcher with pop and timely production
In the 2026 season, Caleb Herd has been a useful run-producer for New Mexico, including his first homer of the year and multiple RBI moments in tight game states, while his 2025 line (.274/.405/.468 with 5 HR and 22 RBI over 52 games) shows real on-base skill and gap-to-power upside. Listed as a senior grad transfer from Pima CC, he brings experience, a right-handed bat, and a steady catcher profile that can stabilize a lineup. He looks like the kind of player coaches trust because he competes, finds ways on base, and can give you sneaky extra-base damage.
