Michael Seth Maness (/ˈmnɛs/ MAY-ness; born October 14, 1988) is an American professional baseball pitcher in the Kansas City Royals organization. He previously played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the St. Louis Cardinals.

Maness was born in Pinehurst, North Carolina. The son of Michael Maness and Jan Andrews Benton, he has two siblings—Bailey and Tanner. He attended Pinecrest High School in Southern Pines, North Carolina, where he played for the school's baseball team. As a sophomore, he earned first team All-State and conference Player of the Year honors. His father served as one of his coaches.

Following high school, Maness enrolled at East Carolina University, majoring in accounting. He played college baseball for the East Carolina Pirates. Initially a middle infielder, Maness was converted to a pitcher when one of the team's starting pitchers went down with an injury. Before the 2009 season, Maness was named a preseason All-American. On May 3, 2010, he was named Conference USA's pitcher of the week, and after the season, he was named the conference's pitcher of the year. The Florida Marlins drafted Maness in the 41st round of the 2010 MLB draft, but he did not sign.
