live arm, strike-throwing upside, and a transfer-portal watchlist name
In his 2025 freshman season at USC, Jake Sekany showed real bullpen value with 20 appearances, 4 starts, and 45 strikeouts in 48.1 innings, while his high-school résumé hinted at why coaches liked the arm: a 10-1 record, 1.85 ERA, and just 11 walks in 72 innings as a junior at Granada HS. The appeal is the profile—6-3, right-handed, competitive, and efficient—but the broader read is that he was still early in his development and later entered the transfer portal, so he fits best for teams wanting a projectable strike-thrower with upside rather than a finished product.
