Texas A&M’s pitching picture for 2027 is wide open. With multiple arms drafted and only Aiden Sims locked into a weekend role, the rest of the rotation and bullpen will be decided through a full‑scale competition once fall ball begins. Into that uncertainty comes a high‑upside addition from the high school ranks, one that immediately raises the ceiling of the future staff.

On Monday, class of 2026 right‑hander Josh Horvath (Round Rock, Texas) announced his commitment to the Aggies. It’s a significant pickup at a position in need of depth, development, and long‑term stability. Horvath fits that mold perfectly. A raw but gifted arm with the kind of tools that can blossom into an SEC‑caliber weapon under the right coaching.

When you think power pitcher, Horvath checks every box. He’s been clocked at 100 mph in training and consistently sits in the mid‑ to high‑90s during games. The fastball is already elite. The next step is refining his command and sharpening a reliable secondary pitch, areas where development will determine just how quickly he can impact the program. But the foundation is there, and it’s strong.

Perfect Game ranks Horvath as the No. 10 right‑handed pitcher and No. 10 overall player in Texas for the 2026 class, underscoring just how valuable this commitment is for a staff entering a transitional year. With Barry Enright now leading the pitching room, Texas A&M is betting on high‑ceiling arms who can grow within a modern developmental system and Horvath fits that vision exactly.

You can see his announcement below.
