Jacob Roettgen brings veteran lefty depth and sneaky run prevention to Murray State
In the 2026 season, Jacob Roettgen has been a dependable graduate-student LHP for Murray State, including a 2.2-inning relief win against Mercyhurst and a 1.1-inning outing with two strikeouts in the Missouri Valley tournament. He’s a big-bodied, 6-2, 250-pound southpaw who profiles as a physical, strike-throwing arm with bullpen versatility and late-game value. If you want older-player toughness, matchup potential, and a pitcher who can steady innings without needing the spotlight, Roettgen fits the bill.
