Minnesota’s steady right-handed bullpen arm with strikeout bite
In the 2026 season, Tyler Hemmesch has shown he can help Minnesota in relief with multiple multi-inning outings, including a two-inning shutout win over St. Thomas and a one-inning, two-strikeout stint against the same opponent; he also picked up a win earlier in 2025 and posted 25 strikeouts in 27.0 innings as a freshman in 2024. The big draw is his strike-throwing, competitiveness, and ability to handle leverage without looking rattled, which makes him a useful fit for teams wanting a tough, reliable righty who can bridge innings and flash swing-and-miss stuff.
