Jaxon Junnila brings catch-and-hit upside to MTSU’s 2026 roster
Jaxon Junnila enters the 2026 season as a senior catcher for Middle Tennessee, and the upside is his bat-driven transfer profile: he hit .329 in 30 games for Daytona State in 2024 before joining the Blue Raiders, and MTSU’s staff specifically praised his offensive progress. In 2025, his role looked more part-time, but he still delivered a walk-off single in an 11-inning win, which says something about clutch juice and competitive edge. If a team wants a catcher with experience, toughness, and some pop potential, he’s an interesting fit.
