Ty Thomson brings Kansas a polished lefty strike-thrower with starter traits
Thomson looks like a high-upside arm for Kansas: at Des Moines Area Community College in 2025, he went 3-3 with a 2.91 ERA, 77 strikeouts in 43.1 innings, 20 walks, two complete games and one save, and he was a two-time ICCAC Pitcher of the Week. His calling card is a low-90s fastball that has topped out at 93 mph, pairing usable velocity with a starter’s workload and durability. At 6-foot-5, 207 pounds, the left-hander offers size, angle and real swing-and-miss potential, making him a good fit for teams valuing projection and strike-throwing upside.[2][1][4]
