Jack Kirchner is a big-bodied Rutgers righty still finding his stride
Kirchner, a 6-foot-4 redshirt sophomore RHP for Rutgers in the 2026 season, brings size, a power arm, and real strikeout ability, but his current results have been uneven as he’s worked back from the injury that wiped out his freshman year. Rutgers had him on the mound in multiple roles in 2026, and his stat line shows the classic upside-versus-command tradeoff: flashes of swing-and-miss stuff, but too many baserunners at times. If your team wants an arm with projection and toughness, he’s interesting; if you need a polished strike-thrower right now, he’s still a work in progress.
