Erdman’s a Saturday ace in disguise for Purdue
Zach Erdman has been Purdue’s steady left-handed bulldog in 2026, highlighted by an eight-inning, shutout debut with 7 strikeouts and a run of quality starts that helped fuel multiple 2-1 wins. The senior brings poise, strike-throwing, and real game-management chops—he’s not just missing bats, he’s controlling tempo and limiting damage. His track record suggests a durable, low-drama weekend arm who can flatten lineups and keep his team in every game. If you want a reliable LHP who competes like his hair’s on fire, he fits.
