Jake Schweitzer’s stuff and strike-throwing keep him in Louisville’s mix
In the 2026 season, Louisville RHP Jake Schweitzer was a steady bullpen piece and preseason Stopper of the Year watch-list arm, earning Academic All-ACC honors and giving the Cardinals a durable, right-handed option with a live sinker/slider profile. He opened 2026 with some volatility, but the broader resume shows real value: in 2025, he posted a 2.34 ERA, 23 strikeouts, and held hitters to a .200 average over 42.1 innings, flashing poise in leverage and enough command to matter. He looks like a fit for teams that want strikes, toughness, and upside without the drama.
