With his decision to put down the bat last season, Rudge has proceeded to cement himself as one of the top arms in Ontario’s 2025 class. Explosive rotationally, yet smooth down the hill and works from a low three-quarter arm slot. Trent topped our Pitcher-Only fastball velocity leaderboard on the day, up to 89.2mph with sink and featured a tight high 70s slider. Rounds out his polished repertoire with a changeup that sat 82-84mph with 21in. of horizontal movement. One of the latest electric arms to come out of the Windsor Selects program, Rudge looks to be a potential impact arm at the next level.

2025 RHP/3B Trent Rudge showed significant improvements on the mound in Windsor. Standing at 6-foot, 215-pound Rudge has a physical presence on the mound and works with a 3-pitch mix of FB/SL/CH. The FB showcased notable improvements, sitting 86-88mph T89 (previously T86) paired with a SL that has the characteristics of a swing-and-miss pitch. Rudge has a quick, strong arm that operates from the ¾ slot and he showed good feel for the zone with all three pitches. An arm to keep tabs on in Ontario’s 2025 class as he continues to grow on the mound.

Uncommitted ‘26 Trent Rudge is one of the more physical players in his class. Standing 5-foot-11, 215-pounds, Rudge shows powerful movements in all aspects of his game. In the box, it's a violent swing with bat speed from the right-side, living in the low 9’s, topping out at 97.1 max EV. On the infield, he moves well side-to-side and showed some athleticism in his footwork and a 85 mph arm across the diamond. This will be a big summer for Rudge as he will be a close follow in Ontario’s 2026 class.

Rudge, 5-foot-10, 215-pounds, immediately stood out when he walked in the building. XL physical right-handed bat that produced multiple 90+ EV’s with a max of 96.3 mph. He starts in an open stance with a low leg kick for timing. He doesn't get cheated at the plate, swinging with intent every time. Rudge is one of the most physical 2026’s in Canada and will be a close follow going forward.
