Uncommitted Spotlight: 2026 C/RHP Tyler Kephart

December 13, 2023
Caleb Dameron
PBR Colorado Staff

As we wrap up the 2023 season, we now continue our coverage of the talent we've seen so far this year in Colorado with 'Uncommitted Spotlights' of the top prospects still on the board in the sophomore class. While there's already prospects in the class committed to programs already, there remains a slew of high-end talent still available.

These spotlights help paint a picture of the prospect with the help of our TrackMan, Blast Motion, Swift Performance and Vizual Edge systems, that provides objective data that teams use to identify and break down players they believe will fit into their system.

Today, we continue our Top Uncommitted Spotlights with a look at 2026 C/RHP Tyler Kephart of Fossil Ridge HS. Kephart is a strong two-way prospect with some explosive and athletic actions already. The sophomore comes with a 102 mph top exit-velocity, an 81 mph top bat speed, an 80 mph catcher velocity, a pop time under 2.00, and has hit 87 mph from the mound. Kephart is actively developing right now while his strong and athletic frame has plenty of time to continue to grow.
