RHP Matthew Rogers (Plainfield South, 2026) a lean, long-limbed, 6-foot-2, 195-pound frame and gave a loud look during his outing Tuesday afternoon. Working from the stretch only, the right-hander works with a quick, short, drop-and-drive leg kick motion. Coming for the ¾ slot, the arm works short and clean, able to add late life to the ball. Rogers showed a strong two-pitch mix; the fastball was sitting upper 80s, T91 mph, with late life, and the slider was sitting 78 mph, with short, sharp break. Throughout his outing, Rogers was reality heavy on the fastball and beating hitters with it. Inducing groundballs and powering the fastball by hitters. An uncommitted arm to keep an eye out for the Illinois class of 2026.
Positional Profile: RHP/OF
Body: 6-2, 195-pounds. Lean, high-waisted frame with long levers present.
Delivery: Stretch-only, quick, short leg kick, drop and drive motion that works in-line.
Arm Action: RH. Easy, quick, clean 3/4 arm action.
FB: T91, 87-90 mph. Firm fastball with late life, tends to ride with slight cut. T2329, 1960 average rpm.
CB: 78-78 mph. Short sharp break, 12/6 shape. T2207, 2038 average rpm.
Uncommitted. Long-levered 6-foot-2, 195-pound frame with more room to fill out. Out of the bullpen, Rogers struck out five while allowing no hits. Generated multiple whiffs and bad swings. Relied heavily on the fastball that sat 87-89 mph with life. Went to a 76-78 mph slider off of it. Pounded the zone with intent. An uncommitted arm to know.
RHP Matthew Rogers (Plainfield South, 2026) made his Prep Baseball event debut, and emerged as an uncommitted name to follow in the state’s junior class. Presenting a lean 6-foot-2, 195-pound frame, Rogers filled the zone with all three pitches during his ‘pen. His fastball sat 84-87 mph with life out of the hand, playing with carry (avg. 19.4” IVB) and 71% strikes. He spun a short curveball at 74-77 mph with feel for the bottom of the zone for 75% strikes. Rogers completed his repertoire with an 80-81 mph changeup that was in the zone 60% of the time.
Positional Profile: RHP/OF
Body: 6-2, 195-pounds. Athletic build with a high waist, room to add more strength, broad shoulders.
Delivery: Stretch-only; medium leg kick into balance point, tall/fall lower-half, stays in-line.
Arm Action: RH. Short, quick arm action, high 3/4 slot.
FB: T87, 84-87 mph. Life out of the hand, plays with carry. T2060, 1957 average rpm.
CB: 74-77 mph. Short vertical action, plays at the bottom of the zone, lands. T2027, 1936 average rpm.
CH: 80-81 mph. Mostly straight actions, feel for the zone. T1528, 1378 average rpm.
Rogers (Plainfield, 2026) would come in relief during the 16U final this weekend, closing out the game with a multi-inning appearance of shutout baseball. The right-handed hitter came from a 3/4s arm slot and showed a fastball in the 79-83 (T84) mph range that was paired with an upper-60s-low-70s breaking ball.
A free moving and loose arm with projection as he continues to fill out. Fastball held 7-81 mph throughout the start, topping out at T82 mph with more in the tank. Intriguing right-hander to follow.
