LSU transfer portal activity at pitcher

Seo follows the a trend of a mass transfer portal exodus for LSU this offseason specifically in their bullpen. With Seo joining Javen Coleman, Cam Johnson, Nick Bronzini, and Samuel Dutton as former Tigers’ pitchers to enter the portal. With catcher Brady Neal also entering the transfer portal on Monday. But despite losing some depth in the bullpen, head coach Jay Johnson has done an excellent job of securing commitments from pitchers out of the transfer portal as well.

With Cowan earning First-Team All-Southern Conference after going 10-2 on the mound last season with a 3.35 ERA and Wicker having an impressive true freshman season where he was named to the Southern Conference All-Freshman Team.
