Jack Dumont brings a live left arm to SLU, but the command has been the storyline
Dumont is a 6-foot-3 left-hander who was once ranked among Missouri’s top five prep LHPs and was noted for a fastball that can reach over 90 mph, which gives him real upside if the strike-throwing sharpens up. In the 2026 season, he has worked in a limited role and the run prevention has been rough, but that doesn’t erase the intriguing frame, left-handed velocity, and strikeout flashes that make him worth monitoring as a developmental arm. If your team wants a project with power and pedigree, he fits; if you need instant polish, he’s still a work in progress.
