Caden Wade’s arm talent is intriguing, but the 2025 numbers say he’s still hunting consistency
In the 2025 season, the Alcorn State junior left-hander posted a 12.10 ERA with 3 strikeouts in 9.2 innings, and he entered 2026 as the expected starter after a rough outing against Mississippi State to open the year. What makes him worth a look is the left-handed profile, starter’s role, and a background of competing in tough spots rather than hiding from them; his prep résumé included a 6-1 senior season with a 2.48 ERA. He’s a low-risk watch list arm for teams betting on rebound potential, not a finished product yet.
