Scouting Report

2026

Scouting grades: Fastball: 50 | Slider: 60 | Changeup: 50 | Control: 40 | Overall: 40 

Cohen spent five years at George Washington and was the Colonials' best starter in the final three before signing for $20,000 as a nondrafted free agent in 2022. Since missing the first half of the 2024 season with a back strain, he has been one of the most unhittable relievers in the Minors during the past two years, logging a 1.62 ERA and .155 opponent average. Though the Yankees declined to protect him on their 40-man roster this offseason, he slipped through the Rule 5 Draft and will compete for a big league bullpen job in 2026. 

Cohen's money pitch is a tight mid-80s slider that hitters can't lay off or catch up to when it ventures into the strike zone. His fastball is fairly ordinary, ranging from 92-94 mph and reaching 96 with nice carry at times but also below-average command that can make it vulnerable. His mid-80s changeup with fade and sink can be a solid offering at it's best. 

Cohen hides the ball well with an up-tempo, upright delivery with a high leg kick. While his mechanics provide deception, they also hamper his control and have resulted in a 12 percent walk rate in pro ball. He profiles more as a middle reliever than a high-leverage option. 


2025

Scouting grades: Fastball: 50 | Slider: 60 | Cutter: 60 | Changeup: 55 | Control: 45 | Overall: 40

Cohen spent five college seasons at George Washington, the last three as the Colonials' top starter, before signing as a nondrafted free agent in 2022. He has been one of the most unhittable relievers in the Minors over the last two seasons, and his success at the upper levels this year could lead to a big league opportunity in 2026.

Cohen thrives despite having a fastball that is ordinary in terms of velocity (sitting at 92-94 mph, touching 96) and struggles to land it in the strike zone. He compensates with a mid-80s slider and slightly harder cutter that have been unhittable. His mid-80s changeup also creates a lot of swings and misses with its fade and sink.

Working from an up-tempo delivery with a high leg kick, Cohen drops and drives toward the plate with a low arm slot. It's a combination that provides deception but also hampers his control at times. He projects more as a middle reliever than a late-inning option.
