strike-throwing grad transfer with a sub-2.10 ERA at Eastern Michigan
Rowland enters the portal after a strong 2026 season at Eastern Michigan, where he posted a 2.08 ERA, a .115 opponent batting average, and seven scoreless appearances, while working in the 90–93 mph fastball range with a sinker/changeup mix that gives him a starter’s look and a ground-ball profile. His best selling point is run prevention and consistency, though his strikeout total has been modest, so he profiles more as a dependable innings piece than a pure bat-misser. For a team needing efficient right-handed pitching, he looks like a solid fit.
