Bio

Returns to Saddleback after pitching in 15 games for the Bobcats last spring.  During his freshman campaign, Barajas finished 6-2 and two saves and a 3.50 ERA in 61.2 innings of work.  Following the season he was named to the All-Orange Empire Conference Second Team.

Previous to Saddleback, Barajas lettered in baseball and basketball at Torrey Pines High School  before graduating in 2024.  While at TPHS, Barajas was part of a CIF championship team.  

Barajas is the brother of Rodrigo Barajas, who was drafted by the Giants this past year. In addition, he is also the son of Rod Barajas, who played in the major leagues for 15 seasons.

Barajas likes to play golf.  He plans to major in kinesiology.
