Henry Kufa gives Southern Illinois a versatile infield option with timely pop and athletic upside
Kufa has shown real utility for Southern Illinois in 2026, with season highs that include a home run, 3 RBIs, 2 stolen bases, and 6 assists, signaling an infielder who can contribute in multiple phases of the game.[4] Listed as a 5-foot-11, 185-pound right-handed hitter and thrower, he profiles as a compact, durable middle-infield type rather than a pure power bat.[3] For a team, that makes him a useful fit if you want dependable defense, occasional offensive damage, and a player whose value may extend beyond the box score.[1][3][4]
