Alex Cook gives Stonehill a tough, strikeout-first lefty out of the bullpen
In the 2026 season, Stonehill sophomore LHP Alex Cook has been a useful relief arm, logging 27.1 innings with a 4.61 ERA and 28 strikeouts while showing the kind of swing-and-miss ability that can change innings fast.[1][3] Stonehill’s own game notes also show he can work under pressure, including a 2.2-inning scoreless outing with three strikeouts to steady a late-game jam against Central Connecticut State.[6] The appeal: he’s a live left-handed option who competes in leverage spots; the concern: consistency and command still need sharpening before he looks like a sure-fire impact fit.[1][6]
