steady senior right-hander with mid-rotation consistency and swing-and-miss upside
Clay Hendry enters 2026 as a senior right-handed starter for North Florida, coming off a strong 2025 season in which he went 6-4 with a 3.49 ERA, 63 strikeouts, and a .223 opponent batting average in 56.2 innings, earning ASUN Third Team honors. He’s the kind of pitcher who gives you competitive starts, attacks the zone, and can miss bats without getting too cute—very coach-friendly stuff. The bigger context: he’s shown real growth from a rough 2024 Daytona State line, suggesting a durable arm with some development arc still left.
