Unsigned Senior Spotlight: 2025 RHP Cole Thompson


Jamie Tessoff
KY Scouting Director




Scouting Report

Position: RHP

Body: 6’4” 220 Pounds

Pitching: Works from a High 3/4 slot and continues to gain velocity working into the low 90’s with improved command

Fastball: Works comfortably in the 88-90 range with reports now into low 90’s

Slider: 76-79 When landed creates swing and miss

Curveball: 74-78

Change Up: 83-84 

Former Future Games Righty Thompson remains as one of the top arms left on the board in The Commonwealth. Thompson’s future as a Starter or bullpen arm will rely heavily on if the Change Up continues to improve giving a legitimate third offering. For now, it’s Slider over Curveball for the talented righty from Louisville.
