Max Knight brings left-handed versatility and strikeout upside to Missouri State
Knight is a 6-foot-3, 191-pound lefty who gives Missouri State a rare two-way profile on the mound and at the plate, and in 2026 he has logged a 5-3 record with a 5.40 ERA and 43 strikeouts for the Bears.[1] His appeal goes beyond the stat line: he has a long, projectable frame, left-on-left value, and the kind of multi-position versatility that can help a staff and lineup in different ways.[1][2]
