UCSB’s high-upside strike-thrower with draft-level polish
Jannicelli looks like a **power right-hander with real runway**: as a UC Santa Barbara freshman, he already earned his first college win in April 2026 with three clutch relief innings, and his high-school résumé shows elite run prevention, strikeout ability, and advanced command. In 2025, he was described as a projectable arm with a fastball that can reach the mid-90s, a usable changeup, and a repeatable strike-throwing foundation; that combo makes him attractive for teams that value upside, composure, and developmental ceiling. If you want a tall, durable-looking arm who can miss bats and keep the ball in the zone, he fits.
