Extremely excited to announce my commitment to play baseball at the University of Iowa. Thank you to everyone who has helped me get to this point! @UIBaseball
I think Chas Wheatley should get a shot in affiliated ball. VERY unique profile and a big season out of Iowa bullpen:
SK: 92.2 avg 94.6t | -3.4” VB ❗️| 15.9” HB | -6.7 VAA‼️| 5.8’ rh | 2 rs |
SL: 88 avg | 2.4” VB | -1.3” HB|
SW: 82 avg | -2.2 VB | -18.7 HB ‼️
24 app | 24.1 IP | 3.70 ERA | 28 K
Chas Wheatley (‘25 elig) working 91-92 mph on the FB w/ good ASR & life to it. Also showing a SL around 80 mph w/ devilish hi-tilt shape and depth to it. SL spinning above 2,500 RPMs. Plenty to like from the righty reliever who made quick work of the opposition. @UIBaseball
I would like to announce my commitment to the University of Tennessee to further my Athletic and academic career next year. Thankyou to god and everyone else who has helped me reach this point!#govols🍊

Hawkeye catchers were elite behind the plate this fall. Cade Moss (@cademoss17) and Davis Cop (@dcop38) combined to steal 26 strikes through their receiving! Here's a look at some stolen strikes, all with called strike probabilities less than 50%
Zach Voelker (@VoelkerZach) has been an electric factory this fall. With a 58% K rate and no walks, his opponents are whiffing at a 57% clip and carry an expected batting average of .040 😳. Voelker's slider is averaging 83 MPH with 16" of sweep, good for a 182 Stuff+ score 🔥
Jack Young (@jackyoung125) has been a master of dominating the zone this fall. His latest outing featured a 7-pitch shutdown inning with 2 strikeouts. Over the fall, he has generated a 62% whiff rate on his slider and has a Location+ of over 120 on all four of his pitches!

He loves baseball and the #Hawkeyes, and we are very excited to officially welcome him to our family!
Game 2 MVP @jackyoung125 came out of the bullpen for the Black team as was lights out. In 2.1 innings of work, he shut down the Gold team allowing just 1 baserunner, no hits, and struck out 4.
Be sure to check out game 3 this afternoon at 3:15!
