Max Donecea is an Army lefty with early-career upside and bullpen value
In the 2026 season, Max Donecea emerged as a useful arm for Army, earning his first career win on March 18 after tossing three innings with three strikeouts against UAlbany, and later delivering scoreless relief in the win over Saint Peter’s. The 5-foot-11, 170-pound southpaw from Northport, N.Y., looks like a classic Army glue guy: competitive, strike-throwing, and trusted in leverage, even as a young pitcher finding his footing. If you want a left-handed reliever with room to grow and a low-drama, high-discipline fit, he’s worth a close look.
