Braden Gluth gives NDSU a reliable, strike-throwing relief arm with late-season pop
In the 2026 season, Braden Gluth was a bullpen workhorse for North Dakota State, making a team-high 17 appearances and posting a 3.99 ERA with 21 strikeouts over 29.1 innings. He looks like a steady, low-drama righty who can cover multiple innings, and his best outings show a real ability to miss bats — including three strikeouts in his Bison debut and 4.1 relief innings with two strikeouts against Northern Colorado. Add in solid summer-league form and he profiles as a useful fit for teams wanting a dependable, inning-saving reliever.
