Top 25 Profiles of 2025: No. 14 Cole Breeden
December 23, 2025
As we are nearing the end of another calendar year, we have compiled a list of the top 25 most viewed Indiana player profiles this year. According to our research through our google analytics, these are the most viewed profiles by you the reader in 2025.
Coming in at No. 14 is ’28 RHP Cole Breeden (Evansville Mater Dei HS). The 6-foot-5, 200 pound right-hander is the top arm in Indiana's 2028 class, ranking No. 2 in the state and No. 55 nationally. Breeden is one of the most advanced arms we have seen at Prep Baseball Indiana in recent years. An athletic, projectable frame with a silky move down the slope. The arm works loose and clean to a 3/4 slot, fastball in the mid-to-upper 80s and has reached 89. The righty showed well in multiple looks throughout the spring and summer. He tossed two innings for Team Indiana at the Midwest Super Sophomore Games in August, as well.

Scouting Report
Frame / Athleticism: Projectable, wiry, 6-foot-4, 175 pounds with long limbs. Should ending up holding well-over 200 pounds. Multi-sport athlete (basketball). Stuff: Fastball sat 82-84 with mid-2300 spin at times, shows the makings of a power sinker. Slider is a future swing-and-miss pitch with true sweeper shape and tight spin (2200-plus avg) in the low-70s. Low-70s change was thrown with fastball intent and played with heavy fade. All pitches were controlled, he showed the best command for his change. Arm Action / Delivery: Slow tempo to top of lift w/ slight hesitation at the top. Slight tilt/topple move, works in-line. Lands square. Excellent hip-to-shoulder separation. Dynamic, controlled finish. Clean, on-time takeaway begins a moderate-lengthed arm action. Repeats a full-circle arm action, tends to shorten swing length, gets to a 3/4 slot at release. Arm action is super loose. Summation: Breeden is our top-ranked arm in the class and a safe projection. This is what a high-end arm from Indiana looks like as a freshman. Phil Wade comped him to Bryan Hoeing, a 2015 grad (also a talented hooper) that debuted for the Marlins in 2022. I haven't seen an arm as polished as Breeden for the age when all things are considered. There is very good control, border-line command already, a hard tab for such a young prospect. While the velocities are not eye popping yet, the operation is easy, loose, clean and he has two well-shaped off-speed pitches making a starters' tab safe.
