Justin Morgan Wayne (born April 16, 1979) is an American former professional baseball pitcher, who played for the Florida Marlins of Major League Baseball for 3 seasons.

Wayne is from Honolulu, Hawaii, and an alumnus of Punahou School. In high school, Wayne played baseball and soccer, and was a cross country runner. He was named to the All-Hawaii baseball team.

In his freshman year studying economics at Stanford University in 1998, Wayne's record as a relief pitcher was 6–0 with 6 saves. He was named by Collegiate Baseball to their first freshman All-American team and by The Sporting News as second team Freshman All-American. In his sophomore year, Wayne became a starting pitcher, and had a 10–0 record. His team finished in third place at the College World Series. In 2000, Wayne was named co-Pac-10 Pitcher of the Year, with a 15–4 record and a 3.21 ERA, with Stanford reaching the finals of the College World Series. Wayne had 363 strikeouts while playing at Stanford, tied for first in that statistic.
