Ryan De La Maza is flashing pop for Fresno State, with a breakout moment already in the books
In the 2026 season, Ryan De La Maza has been a useful left-field/utility bat for Fresno State, hitting .205 with a .286 OBP, .295 SLG, 1 home run, and 4 RBI across 26 games, but his most eye-catching takeaway is upside: he delivered 3 RBI and a homer in his first start and later turned in a 2-hit, 2-run outing against Cal Poly. The big differentiator is his athletic family base and multi-positional flexibility; he’s listed as a catcher on the roster, but game usage shows he can move around, which makes him a sneaky fit for a program needing roster versatility and a player who’s still growing into his college role.
