Roch Cholowsky

[David Mysza @davidmysza]

Entering the transfer portal after 2 great years at UCLA. Finished my redshirt freshman year where I was used as a pinch runner & defensive replacement.

Looking forward to finding a home to compete for an everyday roll

Roch Cholowsky rung in his 21st birthday in similar fashion to Mike Trout, Ted Williams, Alex Rodriguez and Frank Robinson.

Roch Cholowsky occupies the most unforgiving real estate on the diamond, asked to restore UCLA to college baseball's summit.

He calls meetings before coaches, knows game plans before they circulate and, literally, scripts his future.

On the preseason No. 1 Bruins' cornerstone:

UCLA shortstops - past and present!

Scouting UCLA shortstop Roch Cholowsky—the most complete college shortstop prospect in a decade:

https://t.co/kidcI4f4hT

[Baseball America @BaseballAmerica]

No college shortstop has been selected first overall since the 2015 draft that saw Dansby Swanson go first and Alex Bregman go second.

Could UCLA's Roch Cholowsky be the first? 👀

Roch Cholowsky, the top player on @jimcallisMLB's ranking of the 20 best college prospects for the '26 Draft, would've been No. 1 overall on the '25 Draft list 👀

Here are the top 20 college prospects for the 2026 Draft: https://t.co/xYGqwPTrcN

[Joe Doyle @JoeDoyleMiLB]

If you needed evidence as to why UCLA shortstop Roch Cholowsky is one of the best shortstop prospects we've seen in some time, here you go.

This is every college SS who saw at least 500 pitches in a season from 2022 to 2025. Roch hits the ball very hard. Impacts the game.

I'd venture he's in the 90th percentile of defenders on this board too.

[Joe Doyle @JoeDoyleMiLB]

This college shortstop class has a chance to be one for the ages. Stacked at the top, deep, and exceptional on the defensive end.

The 2023 Draft owns the record for most college shortstops announced in the first round (6).

Could 2026 top that?

[D1Baseball @d1baseball]

"Good catchers are always in demand, and if Cashel Dugger’s bat takes another step forward in his junior year, he could be a top-10-rounds draft pick."
