UTRGV’s Wyatt Wiatrek: heavy-righty pedigree, but still searching for college consistency
Wiatrek brings a sturdy 6'3", 190-pound right-handed frame and a history of elite high-school production—he went 12-0 with a 0.64 ERA and 90 strikeouts over 65 innings in 2022—but his current college numbers show he is still finding his footing, with a 16.50 ERA and 7 strikeouts in limited 2026 action. [1][5] Reports from his amateur days described a fastball with real life/heaviness, which suggests upside if his command and pitch consistency catch up to the tools. [2][6]
