Mercer’s high-leverage bullpen arm with electric stuff
In the 2025 season, Collin Ewaldsen emerged as one of Mercer’s most trusted bullpen weapons, earning SoCon All-Freshman honors after 24 relief appearances, four saves, a 4.68 ERA, and 30 strikeouts in 25 innings. Mercer’s staff describes him as an explosive pitcher with an electric fastball, and his 10-game scoreless streak showed real late-inning poise. He looks like a fit for teams needing a fearless, high-upside reliever who can handle pressure, though the command needs to keep trending with the stuff.
