Trevor Rector brings strike-throwing upside and big-game poise to UC San Diego’s rotation
In the 2026 season, Trevor Rector has been a versatile right-hander for UC San Diego, starting games, working as an opener, and showing bat-missing ability in stretches, including a 3.0-inning, 4-strikeout outing against UC Irvine and a flawless first inning against Hawai‘i. He’s not an overpowering headline arm yet, but he competes, attacks the zone, and gives the Tritons a flexible mound option. If your team values strike-throwers who can handle pressure and move between roles, he’s worth a look.
