Cantrell’s big frame and swing-and-miss arm still make him a stock-up bullpen piece
In the 2026 season, Fisher Cantrell gave Jacksonville State a power look out of the bullpen, striking out 19 in 9.2 innings while making his first collegiate start against Alabama and flashing a 7-strikeout burst vs. Alabama A&M. At 6-foot-5 with a long, projectable build, he was viewed as a top-500 recruit and a strong athlete with real development upside; Baseball America later slotted him among transfer arms worth tracking. The résumé says raw tools, the context says he competes and misses bats, and that combination makes him an intriguing fit for a staff looking for ceiling.
