Luke McLeod brings two-way upside and sneaky clean freshman stuff to Baylor
In the 2026 season, freshman Luke McLeod has already shown real two-way intrigue for Baylor: a 6-foot-1, 206-pound infielder/right-hander who arrived with an elite high-school résumé, including all-state honors, an all-time hits record, and a 1.03 ERA with 85 strikeouts in 67.2 innings as a senior. Baylor’s notes also indicate he opened the year with scoreless relief work, including a 7.1-inning scoreless streak to start the season, which hints at competitive poise and usable mound polish. He looks like a high-upside fit for a staff that values versatility, athleticism, and low-drama production.
