Scouting Report
Updated May 19, 2026
Cam Schlittler, 25-year-old Yankees right-hander, is having a historic 2026 season. Through nine starts, he leads MLB with a 1.35 ERA, ranks second with a 0.81 WHIP, and has 59 strikeouts with only 9 walks through 53.1 innings (5-1 record). He recently overcame an injury scare when hit by a 108.5 mph comebacker off his left calf in the first inning against Milwaukee on May 9, but remained in the game to pitch six scoreless innings. He has posted four scoreless outings of 5+ innings in his first nine starts and has been especially dominant lately with a 0.70 ERA and 0.81 WHIP over his last six starts (38.1 innings). His statistical profile matches Walter Johnson's 1913 season - the first pitcher in 113 years to record 50+ strikeouts, fewer than 10 walks, sub-1.50 ERA, and no more than 1 HR allowed in first nine starts. He is considered an early AL Cy Young Award candidate.
