I have officially began applying for internships/positions with MLB organizations for 2027. I am a student at NYU dual majoring with a 4.0 GPA in Economics/Mathematics and a minor in Data Science with the explicit goal of creating the future of baseball analysis.
I am extremely passionate about this career path and have created my own sabermetric/scouting website, @eephus_io , from scratch, with mathematically verified industry-leading models and metrics for prospect/MLB-level analysis. I would love the opportunity to go into detail about my work, provide you with a resume, or speak to you personally.
If you have or know about any MLB opportunities or would like to speak with me about my work and/or background further, please DM me or e-mail me at [email protected] to connect. I am incredibly excited about working in baseball and believe I will be a major contributing asset to any Major League Baseball franchise.

Hi all,
Must say that I am currently extremely busy and just a bit exhausted from everything that’s going on. I will look to start posting consistently again soon.
The reason why I’m busy is also related to the announcement coming later this year, but for now, please bear with me!
Thank you as always for all the support I’ve received over the past year.

There are only three MiLB pitchers w/min 100 IP, a K% > 30% and BAA < .200:
- Caden Hunter (BAL)
- Eliazar Dishmey (MIA)
- Xavier Rivas (NYY)
Of this group, Dishmey is the only RHP, while both LHP in Rivas & Hunter have good fastball shapes.

Nolan Schubart's profile is extremely interesting:
The 22-year old has hit 35 HR in 119 G with a 19.2% BB% and .391 OBP, but it comes at the cost of a 71% Z-Con% and 33.7% K%.
6'4" unit paired with a 22.5% PullAIR? Lock me in.
Jake Bauers' 2026 is somehow still underappreciated:
(MLB ranks)
.387 wOBA (5th)
147 wrc+ (6th)
.394 OBP (3rd)
Ranks in the 90th+ percentile in:
- xWOBA (97th)
- Avg. EV (92nd)
- Barrel% (91st)
- Hard-Hit% (95th)
- Bat Speed (94th)
- Chase% (94th)
- BB% (98th)

Prospects 19 or younger w/a BB/K > 1.00 and a SLG > .425 (min 100 PA):
- Jaiden Lo Re (BAL)
- Robert Arias (CLE)
- Luis De Leon (HOU)
- Juan Martinez (COL)
- Franklin Primera (BOS)
- Jose Silva (CHC)
Juan Martinez is a must-know name for the Rockies.
Prospect highlight: Juan Martinez (COL)
Age: 19
H/W: 5'11", 170
Martinez finished his season at Single-A Fresno, playing to a .278/.365/.456 slash with a HR in 24 G.
Standout data:
11.5% BB% / 15.4% K%
89% Z-Con%
29.5% Chase%
23.5% Whiff%
Power remains something to track.

Sammy Natera Jr.'s 1.90 FIP ranks 5th among MLB RP (min 30 IP)
The 26 y/o rookie has pitched 31.2 innings so far:
36.6% K%
9.9% BB% (career-low)
.190 BAA (.178 xBA)
35.7% Whiff%
He throws a FF 79.8% of the time, yet it results in:
.209 BA
.267 SLG
31.3% Whiff%
Unique.
Koki Yamaguchi with a two-homer game 💣
30 HR ✅
Under 27 years old ✅
Breakout season ✅
109.2 MPH off the bat ⚡️
Koki Yamaguchi (山口 航輝) hit his 29th of the season out at 106.2 MPH ⚡️
The 26-year old is having an absolute breakout season and is one of the best sluggers in NPB, with a 45.3% Hard-Hit%, 12.2% Barrel% and a total of 47 XBH!
Shugo Maki (牧 秀悟) hit his 26th HR in 95 games, putting him on pace to break his career-high 29 HR.
Maki is expected to be posted this offseason, with some standout data:
- 110.7 MPH maxEV
- 91.2 MPH avg. EV
- 89.4% Z-Con%
- 30.4% PullAIR ‼️
There are 16 MLB hitters with 10 or more HR since August 1st.
Only three are 23 or younger:
- Jackson Merrill: 10 HR, 1.8 fWAR
- Jackson Chourio: 10 HR, 2.0 fWAR
- Junior Caminero: 10 HR, 0.9 fWAR
Expect to see Triple-J for years to come. Stars.
Emil Morales has firmly established himself as an elite hitting prospect.
He's hitting .295 on the season with 26 HR and 9 SB, keeps his K% down at 25.6% and has decreased his SwStr% by 2.1% YoY.
He has a total of 64 XBH in 117 games.
NPB hitters with 25 or more HR:
- Rypya Kurihara
- Teruaki Sato
- Shota Morishita
- Franmil Reyes
- Kensuke Kondoh
- Tomoya Masaki
3 out of 6 on this list are 27 or younger, showing a clear rise in young sluggers in NPB.
This is exactly why I still think Emmanuel Rodriguez is a Top 15 prospect.
111 MPH off the bat. Elite approach. Elite power. And still so young.
