Payton Manca

I am beyond excited to announce that I will be furthering my academics and athletic career at Florida State University! I want to thank all my coaches, friends, teammates, family and especially my parents for making me the player that I am today. GO NOLES🍢🟡🔴 @FSUBaseball

RILEY JACKSON MY GOODNESS 😳 @NCAABaseball x #SCTop10

Payton Manca with a 1-2-3 inning! @GEICO

CodBall Spotlight: Payton Manca The @FSUBaseball pitcher had a phenomenal summer on the Cape. He posted a 2.70 ERA with 25 strikeouts across 30 innings for the @CotuitKettleers

Don’t wait up, Mom.

Armed with arguably the @CotuitKettleers' best pitch in his 77-81 mph curve, Wyatt Halvorson cleaned up his command as summer went along and finished with 1.95 ERA in 27.1 innings. @DSeifertD1PBR has more on @ASU_Baseball righty @whalvorson2023 and other Cotuit arms ⤵️

"Jack Natili is a top-five-round draft prospect at this point in the process and the way he folds up his 6-foot-3 frame reminds of former Oakland A’s third-rounder Sean Murphy." @DSeifertD1PBR has more on @GoBearcatsBASE catcher @JackNatili7 and other @CotuitKettleers hitters ⤵️

All three were great for the Ketts this summer, with two being all-stars. Jack Natili - .240 BA | 6 HR | 24 RBIs | CCBL All-Star Payton Manca - 2.70 ERA | 1.23 WHIP | 25 Ks | CCBL All-Star Ryan Buckler - 2.96 ERA | 0.95 WHIP | 14 Ks

"Watch how hard he throws everything" 🤯 After having a 9.78 ERA at VCU as a freshman, @martinez_maison began working with @ph3performance. His ERA plummeted to 2.98 as a sophomore. 📈 After a solid season at FSU, he was selected in the 16th round by the Reds! ✍️

An extended look at Payton Manca from his eight-strikeout performance in Orleans. K’d seven of the final ten he faced. 16 whiffs on 85 pitches. FB working 90-92, paired well with the slider yesterday at 81-83. Great week-to-week adjustment with the SL. 13/16 leveraged counts.

Caught Payton Manca again tonight, this time in Orleans. Another enjoyable watch. Produced eight Ks and 16 whiffs in five innings of one-run ball. Pitching with an edge and a ton of confidence. 2.70 ERA in 30 IP this summer. Final line tonight: 5 IP, 3 H, 8K-2BB, and 1 R

Can’t thank the Kettleers staff enough for allowing me to come up here to the Cape to perform & play w/ some great men and meet even better people throughout my month here. Now back on to Miami! Go Ketts & Go Canes!! ❤️🧡! @CotuitKettleers

THERE IT IS! Jaxson West (@FSUBaseball) smacks his first professional hit!

I'm at Sutter Health Park to cover the A's tonight and tomorrow night against the Mariners for @MLB. A's first-round Draft pick Jamie Arnold was here today to meet the team and speak to reporters. He just threw out the first pitch:

Next Chapter! @LATechBSB

It’s time to have a conversation about the Kettleers’ pitching staff. There hasn’t been a better unit in the CCBL over the last month. Across 184 innings, they boast the league's No. 1 ERA (3.33) and WHIP (1.23) with the No. 2 BAA (.228).
