School: Oklahoma StatePosition(s): OF
Height: 6’2″Weight: 228 lbs. Bats: Left Throws: Right
Summary:
Ritchie is a physical left-handed hitting outfielder out of Durant OK. He is an aggressive hitter with a developing hit tool and power that continues to set him apart. Building on a solid 2025 with the Cowboys, Ritchie is on pace for a 25+ home run season in 2026. His pull side power is undeniable, regularly punishing baseballs on the inner half. He gets the barrel out early and catches it out front often. He does have the ability to utilize that power going the other way, showing more aptitude to do so in 2026. The set up is neutral with a very slight leg lift as the trigger. He stays stacked and utilizes his lower half extremely well. The aggressive approach can be a detriment at times, with swing and miss remaining an area to improve (50k’s through 192 PA’s). Despite the aggressive approach, Ritchie will take his BB’s (23 to date) and finds ways to get on base (HBP 11. OBP .417)

Seeing the majority of his time defensively in CF for Josh Holliday’s Cowboys, Ritchie can run it down for his size. His routes remain a work in progress, however his speed has made up for the lack of refinement. The arm is strong, seeing time at third base as well, which speaks to the overall athleticism. At the next level, expect Ritchie to make the move to right field.
An intriguing prospect with 30+ home run potential, Ritchie is steadily climbing up boards as we approach the draft.
