Amsterdam Mohawks Sign Saratoga State Champion Ballplayer

SARATOGA SPRINGS — Charlie Greiner, a right-handed pitcher and member of the 2025 Saratoga Springs Section 2 Class AAA state champion baseball team, has been signed by the Amsterdam Mohawks, the team announced last weekend.

Greiner, who is committed to Florence Darlington Tech, is a submarine pitcher, which means he delivers his pitches closer to the ground in an almost underhanded or sidearm fashion.

“Greiner has exploded on the area baseball scene over the last two years,” the Mohawks said in their signing announcement.

The Saratogian’s fastball has been clocked at 85 mph, and he was the closer on the mound for the Blue Streaks when they won the state title last year. He currently attends the PDG Baseball Academy as a post grad.

The Mohawks 2026 season will begin around the end of May.
