TJ Ziermann is a strike-throwing two-way arm with real late-inning juice
In the 2026 season, TJ Ziermann emerged as a valuable UNC Wilmington freshman reliever, logging 17 appearances and earning a save early against Maryland while also flashing multi-inning reliability later in the summer; he was praised for working out of jams, missing bats, and holding his own in pressure spots. The big draw is his competitiveness and versatility: a right-hander who can pitch in high-leverage innings and brings a two-way background from Laney, where he starred as both a pitcher and hitter. If your team wants a gritty, adaptable arm with upside, he’s worth a hard look.
