Freshman bullpen arm flashing swing-and-miss stuff for Pacific
In the 2026 season, Raridan emerged as a useful right-handed relief arm for Pacific, posting 52 strikeouts in 37.2 innings across 26 bullpen appearances while also logging multiple clutch late-inning outings and two saves. He looks like a real fit if you want a competitive strike-thrower who can miss bats, handle leverage, and give you innings without blinking. The upside is obvious: he’s shown poise, toughness, and enough wipeout moments to matter. The caution flag is the 6.69 ERA, so the run-prevention piece still has to catch up to the stuff.
