Big frame, live arm, and early-season flashes for Kennesaw State
In the 2026 season, Royer has worked mostly as a starter/spot starter for Kennesaw State, flashing real upside with an attacking fastball profile but also some command-and-consistency growing pains, reflected in uneven run prevention across his outings. At 6'6" with a 184-pound frame and a right-handed delivery, he brings the kind of projectable size that coaching staffs love, and one early note from opponents was that he could be the starter to “close out the series,” a sign of trust in his stuff. He looks like a developmental fit: high-ceiling, still maturing, and worth betting on if your staff likes long-levered strike-throwers with room to sharpen the package.
