Southern Miss pitcher JB Middleton was drafted 45th overall by the Rockies in 2025, making him the highest-drafted pitcher from his school. At 6’0”, he has a solid three-pitch mix, including a fastball reaching the mid-90s, a late-breaking slider, and a reliable changeup. After a challenging freshman year, he excelled in 2025 with a 2.31 ERA and impressive strikeout and walk rates. Middleton is seen as a potential back-end starter with strong prospects for development in the Rockies’ system.
