Missouri State’s big-bodied on-base machine with pop
In the 2026 season, Caden Bogenpohl paired real thump with elite strike-zone control for Missouri State, batting .274 with 6 homers, 11 doubles, 33 RBIs and a team-high 57 runs while leading Conference USA with 52 walks. He also finished his Missouri State career with 160 walks, a program record, and was a preseason All-American before becoming a second-round MLB Draft pick by the Phillies. The fit is obvious: patient, productive, and dangerous when pitchers miss in the zone—basically, a run-creating headache in a 6'6" frame.
