Connor Wietgrefe is a southpaw who was selected in the seventh round in 2024. He has gotten off to a solid start in his professional career, too, playing in Greensboro as one of their starting pitchers. He brings a solid four-pitch mix to the table with great command.
So far this season, Wietgrefe has posted a 4.12 ERA with a 4.18 FIP and a 7.93 K/9. He has limited the walks, generating an impressive 2.59 BB/9, and has limited hitters to a batting average of .209. This organization lacks left-handed pitchers, and securing him in the seventh round has already looked like a great pickup.
