Joseph Bordelon is Nicholls’ late-inning swing piece with strikeout bite
In the 2026 season, Nicholls pitcher Joseph Bordelon has flashed real leverage value: he earned a win after 2.1 scoreless innings with 6 strikeouts against UT Martin, picked up a save versus Tulane, and later added another save while finishing a game with six more strikeouts in relief. His calling card is bat-missing ability in short bursts, which makes him a high-upside bullpen fit when a team needs a calm, competitive arm to slam the door. He’s the kind of reliever who can change a game fast—tiny sample, big impact.
