Jason Masick gives Rutgers a strike-throwing right-hander with swing-and-miss upside
In the 2026 season, Jason Masick has worked 17 appearances for Rutgers with a 5.14 ERA, 28.0 innings, 26 strikeouts, and 15 walks, showing a live arm that can miss bats but still needs tighter command.[1] He is notable for his immediate transition from Wagner to a Rutgers role and for handling regular bullpen work, which suggests a staff that trusts his competitiveness and availability.[1][3] The fit is strongest for a team that values power stuff and is willing to develop control, because his current profile looks more like a projectable bullpen weapon than a finished product.[1][2]
