Brayden Gilson has become a reliable late-inning weapon for FAU
In the 2026 season, Florida Atlantic right-hander Brayden Gilson worked 28 relief appearances and posted a 0.77 ERA over 11.2 innings at one point in May, giving the Owls a steady, run-prevention arm when the game gets tight. FAU’s own notes say he allowed just one extra-base hit in 31 innings, which tells you the stuff plays as more than just contact management. He looks like the kind of calm, strike-throwing reliever coaches love: experienced, low-maintenance, and useful in leverage without needing the spotlight.
