Brady Kehlenbrink is Missouri’s lefty strikeout arm with big-time upside
In the 2026 season, Brady Kehlenbrink has emerged as a high-variance, high-upside starter for Missouri, flashing real swing-and-miss stuff with 10-strikeout and 11-strikeout outings while showing the stamina to work deep enough to matter in SEC games. The differentiator is the profile: a sturdy 6-foot-2 lefty who was once a top Missouri prep arm and can still miss bats when his fastball and breaking stuff are working. He looks like a fit if you want a competitor with upside, though the walk/run-suppression consistency still has to sharpen up.
