LHP/1B Derek Chupp (Francis Howell, 2027) emerged as one of the biggest winners from Tuesday’s gameplay portion of the event. Towering on the mound at 6-foot-6, 229 pounds, Chupp showed a notable uptick in stuff from his last appearance at the Missouri Preseason All-State earlier this year. In this latest look, the left-hander ran his fastball up to 88.9 mph, sitting comfortably at 85–88 mph with over 2,300 RPM and up to -12.6 inches of arm-side run at times. He paired it with a sharp 73–77 mph slider that helped him tally four strikeouts across two scoreless innings, and ultimately earning him Most Valuable Pitcher honors from the event. Chupp also impressed with the bat, posting a peak exit velocity of 100.1 mph for good measure. With a highly physical frame and plenty more in the tank, Chupp is a name to know in Missouri’s 2027 class.
