Sam Beck brings veteran two-way value for Omaha, with steady bullpen punch and clutch bats
In the 2026 season, Sam Beck has been a useful two-way piece for Omaha: he hit .275 and posted a .775 OPS, then earned Honorable Mention All-Summit League recognition after striking out 27 batters in 23.1 conference innings. He also showed he can handle pressure, including a five-inning, no-run start against Western Michigan, and Omaha noted he was healthy after injuries last season. At 5-foot-8, he’s not a tools-only guy—he plays with savvy, competitiveness, and enough versatility to help a staff or lineup in multiple ways.
