Landon Parker is a physical, contact-first NJIT backstop with real upside
In the 2025 season, Landon Parker flashed as a capable C/1B for NJIT, appearing in seven games and making two starts, then broke out with his first three collegiate hits and two RBI in a 7-6 win over FDU. He projects as a sturdy, 5-foot-10, 195-pound sophomore who brings catcher/first-base versatility, a competitive edge, and a bat that already showed it can translate in pressure spots. For a team, the appeal is simple: affordable depth with developmental upside, especially if you value toughness, adaptability, and a player who’s already proven he can help win a tight game.
