Cal’s steady senior righty giving the Bears usable bullpen innings
In the 2026 season, Ryan Spalliero worked as a senior right-handed reliever for California, finishing 1-0 with a 4.26 ERA across 20 appearances and 19.0 innings, and he flashed his best stretch with two scoreless innings against Washington and a clean one-hit inning in a win over Pacific[1][2]. He looks like the kind of low-drama, high-utility bullpen arm coaches trust: strike-throwing, competitive, and capable of handling pressure spots, even if his margin for error can shrink when traffic builds on the bases[2][3].
