Wake Forest’s Levonas flashes ace-level swing-and-miss upside
In the 2026 season, Chris Levonas emerged as one of the nation’s most electric right-handers, posting a 10-3 record with a 2.82 ERA, 116 strikeouts in 73.1 innings, and a .171 opponent batting average while earning First Team All-ACC and consensus All-American honors. He’s a fit for teams that want a high-octane starter who can miss bats in bunches; his calling card is pure strikeout stuff, and his standout outing was a 14-K, no-hit, no-walk gem against LMU. The only real caution flag: as a freshman in 2025, his 5.91 ERA showed the command/consistency growth curve that still mattered.
