View Draft Report
School: Stetson Drafted/Committed: Never Drafted
Age At Draft: 22.0
Van Dyke began his college career at Seminole State (Fla.) JC before transferring to Stetson in 2024, where he struggled initially but emerged as a dominant closer as a senior in 2025. He posted a 1.52 ERA with 71 strikeouts and 16 walks over 47.1 innings, earning third-team All-America honors. A strong, 6-foot-2, 255-pound righthander, Van Dyke attacks hitters with a lively 91-93 mph fastball that touches 97 and produced a 37% miss rate thanks to its carry. His primary secondary is a low-80s slider with sharp tilt that drew an eye-popping 49% miss rate. He’ll also occasionally show a mid-70s curveball and a low-80s changeup, but rarely uses them. Van Dyke turns 22 less than a month after the draft and profiles as a surefire reliever in pro ball. While the role is clear, his dominant 2025 performance and swing-and-miss arsenal makes him a compelling target in the 11th round or beyond.
