Top-150 in the Class, Quietly Productive in a Limited WVU Role
Barjam was a highly rated incoming infielder for West Virginia, ranked No. 154 nationally and No. 1 shortstop in South Carolina by Perfect Game, and in the 2026 season he hit .273 with 4 doubles and 3 RBI in 25 games for the Mountaineers. He looks like a middle-infield athlete with real bat-to-ball ability and enough pop to matter, but the bigger story is upside: WVU coaches clearly trusted his tools enough to project him into a bigger role before his transfer. If a team wants a young INF with pedigree, athleticism, and room to grow, he’s intriguing.
