John Hojnowski gives Toledo a strikeout-heavy, swingman look in 2026
In the 2026 season, the junior right-hander logged 29.0 innings with 34 strikeouts for Toledo, including a six-K outing against Oakland and a 4.1-inning shutout burst versus Lipscomb, flashing bat-missing stuff and enough durability to work both starts and relief. His 6.52 ERA shows he’s still a work in progress, but the profile is intriguing: a useful rotation piece with leverage potential when his command is on. If your staff wants a gritty, competitive arm with upside and flexibility, he’s worth a close look.
