steady mid-rotation arm with usable strikeout stuff for A&T
In the 2026 season, Jacob Fields has worked as a junior right-handed pitcher for North Carolina A&T, and the available team stats show a mixed but useful profile: he has 20.1 innings, 22 hits, 15 earned runs, 16 walks, and 18 strikeouts, plus a 6.64 ERA and 1.97 WHIP. He also showed he can handle leverage in a team win over UNC Asheville, where he allowed one run in an inning of work. Fields looks like a pitchability arm who competes and can miss bats, but command has been the separator to watch; if your team values experience and strikeout upside more than pristine control, he’s worth a hard look.
