Joey Hecker brings local pedigree, contact upside, and outfield depth to Washington State
Hecker is a Pullman native and Washington State freshman outfielder who arrives with legit in-state respect: Prep Baseball Report pegged him as Washington’s No. 30 prospect, and he hit .329 with 6 doubles, a triple, a homer, and 19 RBI as a prep senior in the 2025 season. He’s a right-handed bat with a solid frame, a coachable family baseball background, and the kind of steady, depth-building profile that fits a program needing dependable outfield options. If you want a high-upside star, he’s not that yet; if you want a local kid with feel, competitiveness, and room to grow, Hecker absolutely checks boxes.
