Lafayette’s freshman INF showing pop and steady hands in 2026
Stoddard has been a useful freshman infielder for Lafayette in the 2026 season, hitting .222 with 2 home runs and 8 RBI while also flashing reliable defense with a .987 fielding percentage in team stats. His appeal goes beyond the box score: Prep Baseball Report lists a 92.4 mph exit velocity max and strong infield arm strength, suggesting legitimate power upside and the tools to stick on the dirt. He looks like a fit for teams that want a young, projectable INF with bat speed, defensive dependability, and room to grow.
