Dariel Osoria is Kansas’ clutch, power-packed infield bat with draft buzz
In the 2026 season, Dariel Osoria has flashed real game-changing pop for Kansas, highlighted by a three-homer, five-RBI explosion at Texas Tech and a four-hit, six-RBI night at Kansas State. He’s shown he can carry an offense when locked in, and Kansas has trusted him at second base after he worked there all offseason, which says a lot about his adaptability. The big differentiator: when Osoria gets hot, he doesn’t just hit—he tilts games. His value to a roster is simple: middle-order punch, positional flexibility, and a senior presence that can swing a regional.
