AJ Camp is Charlotte’s lefty swingman with late-inning bite and a rising strikeout profile
In the 2026 season, AJ Camp gave Charlotte a versatile left-handed arm who worked 28.0 innings with a 4.50 ERA, 36 strikeouts, and a 1-1 record, while also helping the 49ers in pressure spots out of the bullpen.[4][8] He’s a good fit if you want a competitive strike-thrower with real swing-and-miss stuff, a history of coming through in leverage moments, and enough toughness to handle multiple innings; Charlotte’s own coverage credited him with key shutdown work in wins over Wofford and Campbell.[10][14] The big separator is the profile: lefty, 6-foot-1, 200 pounds, and reportedly working 90-92 mph and touching 94, which gives him real upside beyond the box score.[1][11]
