Rylan Haider gives Washington State a sturdy bullpen arm with strikeout flashes
Rylan Haider has been a useful right-handed reliever for Washington State, and in the 2025 season he made 23 appearances, tied for the team lead, with 26 strikeouts, 3 saves, and a 4.91 ERA in 33 innings. He showed real swing-and-miss life in 2026 too, including a four-strikeout outing to open the season and a shut-down stretch in pressure spots. The fit is clear: he brings experience, mound composure, and a bullpen-ready profile that can help shorten games when he’s locating and finishing hitters.
