Aiden Jimenez (Oregon State/2025) pumped strikes as a freshman at Oregon State this year, posting a 35-7 K-BB mark in 38 innings over 22 appearances. He was even better this summer for Chatham, going 2-0, 1.14 with a 12-2 K-BB mark in 15.2 IP. A physical 6-foot-3, 220-pounder with a high three-quarters slot, Jimenez pumped lively two-seamers at 90-92 mph this summer along with an 86-87 mph splitter that serves as his finish pitch. He also mixes in a a slurve that could use some definition. Jimenez impressed this summer with his maturity and competitiveness on the mound, as well as his feel for pitching. He should be a critical piece for the Beavers in 2024 and could jump up draft boards in the future if his fastball can tick up a bit.

Think the 15.2 was scheduled amount for summer or was there a problem? No idea for Jimenez specifically but a lot of our players go to hitting/pitching labs like driveline in the off season. Those places have gotten much more popular and busy so their schedule controls and then the players go. |

Jimenez was used in short relief.
His 15.2 innings was spread out over 8 appearances.
No problem. He made the All-Star team.
