2025 NCAA Baseball Transfer Portal

[The Federalist Engineer]

Really need to get Nori to school to shore up the OF after losing Sanford. Without him we have I guess Reese/Chance/Stevens and not much else out there.

Also have Rives Reynolds was a freshman that got hurt in pre-season. He was the 242 highest rated High-School recruit in the nation.

There seem to be lots of orphans in the portal, to be fair.

We also have Michael O'Brien as well. Our outfield isn't barren. Pulliam could also play out there. Also, where did this narrative start that we "lost" Sanford. We never had him. To my knowledge, he never even visited.

Pulliams only shot to play will be in the OF unless there are a rash of injuries. Lemo already showed us that he doesn't like Pulliam.

Some of y'all say some ridiculous stuff on here. Pulliam played well mid-season, and earned an opportunity. Then he went into a funk late in the season and batted .117 over his last 34 at bats and he got benched. That's not hate. That's understanding where players are and what your lineup needs. BTW, when Larry went back to 2nd after the MO series, he hit .290 over the remaining games.

[The Federalist Engineer]

Yeah. I think it's Hungate.

How many JC pitchers does MSU have coming? I know of two.

(1) JT Schnoor - a Right-Handed starter with a high K-Rate and low walks. https://www.prccathletics.com/sports...w=career&pos=p

(2) Robert Fontenberrry - a Left Handed starter with low WHIP, gets a K per inning, but people can seem to hit him. Named the JC pitcher of the year. I read that he especially effective on LHH. https://www.prccathletics.com/sports...w=career&pos=p

Ole Miss has fans and dudes that want to play there. Seems a perfect place for a guy with no academic major. I am more disappointed in losing a Purdue mechanical engineering student to the ACC than Sanford to OM. Luke Gaffney to Clemson, when we need a power hitter and a catcher/1B.

I am assuming MSU tried to recruit Gaffney.

I'm assuming you're talking about the UNO kid with OM. No clue on Gaffney. I would feel certain we reached out to him, but there has to be return interest.

he sure doesn't make E's as consistent as Larry at 2B.

I expect one more. But it's not for sure. To take two would have to be absolutely the top two on the board and still not sure if we have the room. But I would and figure it out later.

Got Walker from Jones, Davis from ICC, & the big dog Mannell from Kansas

Yea, I was just told that there could be a commitment this week.

Got Walker from Jones, Davis from ICC, & the big dog Mannell from Kansas

This JC class looks pretty good.

Looked up Mannell, seems this dude is all business and duck hunting. Seems like the right type of mature kid for the program. He numbers look super solid unless Topeka strike zones are the size that Andrew Walling used before MSU, this is a great prospect.

Mannell is by far the best JUCO prospect. Actually started out at K-State. Fortenberry was really good but we'll see how and where he fits. Schnoor was overlooked in high school and may turn out to be Peyton Plumlee 2.0. Davis seems to be a reach honestly.

We seem to be in on pitchers like Matthew Dallas and we're still in the game with Cade Fisher apparently. I'm wait and see on those two. Not sure if they are an either/or or if we would take both or if we're just playing with house money.

I think we take another outfielder too if possible.

With Highfill and likely Powell coming back it is going to be hard to get a catcher this portal cycle. We were very fortunate to find Long and Powell last cycle.

The pitching does. There's one that's not going to help us and one I'm not sure about.

We want one more pitcher, but would take both if it was Dallas and Fisher.

Fischer to Tennessee according to Kendall Rogers

That's Andrew Fisher. Not Cade. (for now anyway)
