Chesapeake Baysox, and posted a 1.86 ERA with eight strikeouts over three starts. On May 15, 2025, Reilly was ruled out for the remainder of the season after undergoing
UCL surgery.
Reilly is a power right-hander with a fastball that routinely sits in the mid-to-upper 90s and can touch 98 mph. His secondary offerings include a tight, high-spin slider and an improving changeup, giving him the potential for a solid three-pitch mix. His strikeout numbers have remained strong throughout college and into pro ball, although inconsistent command has occasionally limited his effectiveness. Evaluators project him as a potential high-leverage reliever or back-end starter, depending on how his command develops post-injury.
