Back to our regularly scheduled programming, the Twins drafted a 6'2 (at just 185 pounds) starting pitcher who they think they can develop. Bouchard is a right-handed starting pitcher who just finished his third season at Wofford, though his first as a full-time starter, throwing 89 innings across 15 starts.

His ERA has fallen year-over-year from 7.36 in 2024 as a freshman to 5.69 as a sophomore to 2.83 as a junior as he has developed as a pitcher, earning Southern Conference Pitcher of the Year and First-Team All-Conference honors. The Twins have had success in recent years, building on mid-to-late round pitchers from smaller schools, tweaking their mechanics to improve velocity and stuff. Wofford certainly fits the mold, and Bouchard entered college with a low-90s fastball.
