Brennan Confreda brings a live left arm and early-role upside for FIU
Confreda enters FIU as a left-handed pitcher with solid pedigree: Perfect Game ranked him the 32nd-best lefty in Florida, and his senior year at Viera featured a 1.58 ERA, 76 strikeouts in 48.2 innings, and a save. FIU’s 2026 notes show he logged six appearances and 7.1 innings as a freshman, flashing a swing-and-miss fastball profile in short stints. The appeal is simple: he’s a developing southpaw with strikeout juice, some polish already in place, and enough projection to matter if your staff likes arm talent and patience.
