Alex Vander Loop is emerging as a swing-and-miss left-leaning power arm for Milwaukee
In the 2026 season, Alex Vander Loop has shown real bite for Milwaukee, including his first career win with five innings against UIC and multiple outings with strikeouts, plus a five-inning, four-strikeout stint in the regular-season finale. He’s a 6-foot-1, 205-pound redshirt freshman pitcher with a track record of swing-and-miss stuff dating back to high school, where he was ranked among Wisconsin’s top 2024 arms and once spun a five-inning shutout with 12 strikeouts. The catch: he’s still developing consistency and command, but the ceiling is exactly why you care.
