Weston Rouse gives ORU a power-lefty look with swing-and-miss upside
Weston Rouse entered 2025 as Oral Roberts’ Friday starter and finished the year with real impact in relief, including a career-high 10 strikeouts against South Dakota State and another 8-strikeout debut start, showing he can miss bats in bunches when his stuff is on.[1][4][14] In 2025, he appeared in 18 games, made five starts, and posted a 6.50 ERA over 44.1 innings, but the late-season bullpen version looked sharper and more durable.[1] If you want a lefty with competitive edge, starter experience, and strikeout upside, Rouse is worth a hard look; if you need polished consistency today, he’s still a work in progress.[1][14]
