Tim Baird brings late-inning juice for Marshall
In the 2025 season, Marshall graduate right-hander Tim Baird was a high-leverage bullpen weapon, going 3-2 with 50 strikeouts in 32.2 innings across 19 appearances, including a season-high eight strikeouts in one outing and a save against Georgia Southern[1]. He gives the Herd a power-arm profile, attacks with swing-and-miss stuff, and has already shown he can handle multiple innings when the game tightens up[1][7]. That makes him a strong fit if a team wants a competitive reliever with real bat-missing ability and closing flexibility.
