High-upside arm still searching for command in 2026
In the 2026 season, Mississippi Valley State right-hander Park Roeder has struggled with consistency, posting an 18.00 ERA in 5.0 innings with 2 strikeouts and 8 walks, which points to raw stuff but shaky command[2][3]. The upside case is simple: he’s getting opportunities in the Delta Devils’ pitching mix, and that usually means coaches see something worth developing, but the current profile says he’s more of a project arm than an immediate plug-and-play fit[1][5].
