Owen Basso brings swing-and-miss relief upside for Lafayette
In the 2026 season, Owen Basso was a key bullpen arm for Lafayette, appearing in 17 games and posting a 4.81 ERA with 32 strikeouts in 33.2 innings, good for a second-team All-Patriot League nod. He looks like a fit if you want a right-handed reliever who can attack hitters and miss bats—his recent outings included multi-inning, zero-run work with 5 strikeouts in 2.0 innings and 4 strikeouts in 3.0 innings. The hook here is simple: he’s been trusted in leverage, has shown bat-missing stuff, and plays with the kind of competitiveness coaches love.
