2024 Future Games: Team Nevada Pitchers
 |
Keenan Dolan RHP / OF / Bishop Manogue, NV / 2026Team Nevada’s Game 1 starter stood tall against a very talented Team California, where he struck out three over his two innings pitched, proving his ability to work from behind in the count and maintain composure throughout. With his fastball running up to a TrackMan Verified 92.6 mph, with present downhill and heaviness, he was able to move it in and out, setting up his slider that sat 78-80 mph (2400) to be his go to secondary pitch, tunneling well off his fastball with even tighter shape to come as he continues to polish his complete mix. Dolan is expected to be one of Nevada’s most sought after prospects with a commitment expected in the near future.

Cash Martin RHP / 3B / Faith Lutheran, NV / 2027Coming off an impressive freshman campaign, Martin continue to impress at the 2024 Future Games where he found his cruising speed at 89-90 mph with life to with with his curveball/changeup secondary mix that kept some of the top Uncommitted bats in California off balance as he struck out 4 over his two inning pitched. Getting ahead early and throwing his curveball (3000+) and changeup (20+ in. HM) with conviction in any count with significant velocity jumps to come proved that Martin is well ahead of the curve as a 2027 and will be a high follow for years to come.

Macen Collura SS / RHP / Faith Lutheran, NV / 2026The athletic is obvious when Collura takes the mound with improvements made in both his fastball and slider since he toed the rubber at the 2023 Future Games. With the heavy reliance on his athletic throughout his delivery, this leads you to believe that their is a lot more still in the tank when it comes to not only velocity, but pitch shape and consistency in being able to locate the secondary mix. His fastball still ran up to 91 mph via TrackMan with some arm side life and his slider proved more effective with tunneled off his fastball and located down in the zone, spinning at 2600 rpm. This is a two-way that we expect to be off the board in the very near future after his performance on both sides of the ball at the 2024 Future Games.

Troy Riley RHP / OF / Reno, NV / 2027The Reno product made in immediate impression during his outing at the 2024 Future Games with fastball finding its cruising speed early at 88-90 mph via TrackMan, striking out three over his two innings pitched with the obvious upside present throughout. One of the only pitchers in the event it features a Split Change, the significant velocity differential between his two pitches kept hitters off balance, inducing weak ground balls to keep his defense active. His curveball still flashes some loop, but is another pitch that with some tightening could be perfect compliment to his fastball that we extend to continue to climb in the velocity department over the next few years.

Lincoln Evans RHP / 1B / Basic Academy of Int'l Studies HS, NV / 2026Coming off a breakout Spring campaign, then carrying it into a successful summer, Evans has steadily ascended into one of the top arms in Nevada’s 2026 Class with much more still to come. Nevada’s Game 2 starter vs. Team Select, he set the tone with a pair of strikeouts over his two innings pitched with his fastball cruising in the mid-80’s with present heaviness and arm side life. His more polished changeup and curveball secondary mix allowed him to be effective throuhgout his outing against a stout opposing lineup. Evans is an arm that we expect to continue to trend over the next few years with is velocity projected to climb.

Shawn Mack 1B / RHP / Liberty HS, NV / 2026With Olympic Gold Medal (3x) bloodlines, Mack has all the attributes of being a premium arm and gave us a glimpse of that at the 2024 Future Games. His consistency and effectiveness have continued to trend on the mound, pounding the zone early and often with his fastball that say 87-88 mph via TrackMan to go with his breaking ball that spun up to 2600 rpm and still has room to improve. Mack could be argued as having the highest ceiling for 2026 Nevada arms with the rawness still present in his delivery and pitch mix, as well as an expected transition to focusing more on pitching, this an arm that seems to just be scratching the surface of what is to come in the next few years.

Jack Goddard-Stoner RHP / RHP / Desert Oasis High School, NV / 2026Arguably the biggest winner for the Team Nevada pitching staff at the 2024 Future Games, Goddard-Stoner had his breakout performance against a stout Team Select lineup. The Prep Baseball Verified 6-foot-3, and growing, right hander was composed on the mound with an effective three pitch mix that saw his fastball steadily climb throuhgout his outing, topping at 88.7 mph with heavy action to go with a more polished curveball/changeup secondary mix that he proved to be able to locate effectively with flashed of tunnel off his fastball. This is a high ceiling arm with much more to come and we expect some serious interest to be coming his way.

 |
Kane Barber LHP / 1B / Centennial, NV / 2026The two-time Future Gamer has come into his own over the past year with arguably the most present pitchability coming from the Team Nevada Pitching Staff. Barber has proven time and time again as an arm that can seemingly get out of any situation and provides an alternate look from the power arms that will fill most college staffs as a softer lefty that throws three pitches for strikes in any count. This will be a quality arm that should be on multiple radars heading into his Junior season.

Hudson Ciulla RHP / 2B / BISHOP GORMAN HIGH SCHOOL, NV / 2026Coming in a compact 5-foot-9 frame with plenty of room to fill out, Ciulla has had his breakout summer campaign that culminated in a huge performance at the 2024 Future Games where he racked up multiple personal bests on one of the biggest stages in the country. The Game 3 starter ran his fastball up to 91.2 mph with his loose, quick arm cycle to go with his improved slider that spun up to 2750 rpm with late, tight life. This is another arm that has made the move to exclusively pitching and his game has taken off since the transition and we expect it to continue to trend over the next few years.

Adrian Ramos OF / LHP / Basic, NV / 2027Ramos impressed during is freshman campaign and continued to show that projectability during his outing at the 2024 Future Games. A loose, clean arm with command of his three pitches that project to all trend as he adds size and strength to his frame over the next few years. Pitching to contact throuhgout his two innings pitched, he struck out one, but kept his defense involved with early strikes and mostly weak contact. This will be an intriguing arm to keep on you radar over the next few years with much more to come. |

Liam Radke RHP / OF / Faith Lutheran High School, NV / 2027Another winner for Team Nevada at the 2024 Future Games was Liam Radke, setting personal bests at the event with present feel with each of his three pitches, commanding the zone with no fear of attacking inside. The 2027 paired his fastball that ran up to 86.3 mph with a much improved slider that spun up to 2950 rpm with late, tight action and heavy changeup that tunneled well of his fastball that he throw with conviction and fastball arm speed. Expect Radke’s game to continue to trend over the next few years with plenty of room to add size and strength and his fastball velocity to mirror those gains.
