Casey Wensley, the standout senior from Bryant University, has inked a free‑agent deal with the Los Angeles Angels following the 2026 MLB Draft, marking the next step in a promising baseball career.
A Draft‑Day Milestone
During his lone season with the Bulldogs, Wensley posted a .319 batting average, recorded 14 doubles, five triples, 33 RBI and 57 runs scored while stealing 30 bases. His performance placed him among the nation’s most elusive hitters, as he struck out only 17 times — ranking him in the top 25 for the toughest to retire. In conference play he added a .330 average and a .466 on‑base percentage, scoring 28 runs.
Over three collegiate seasons, the Rhode Island native compiled a .347 career average with 178 hits, 35 doubles, 95 RBI, 126 runs and 44 stolen bases, while fanning just 56 times in 600 plate appearances. His combination of contact hitting and speed has drawn praise from scouts and teammates alike.
The signing underscores Bryant University’s growing pipeline of talent and highlights the Angels’ commitment to adding dynamic, high‑contact players. Wensley joins a franchise eager to blend youthful energy with seasoned expertise as it looks to contend in the coming years.
