As classes begin on January 13, LSU’s baseball roster is now set for the spring.
Jay Johnson’s program carried a heavier number in the fall than is allowed on the roster as the spring semester begins. That has been resolved as a pair of Tigers have transferred to the junior college level, Johnson told LouisianaSports.net (first reported by Koki Riley of The Advocate).
Trenton Lape, who redshirted last season, has transferred to Chipola College, and Trevor Schmidt has re-enrolled in Fullerton College where he spent last season.
Right hander Devin Sheerin, a Mount St. Mary’s transfer, tore his ACL last summer in a non-baseball accident. He will redshirt this year for LSU.
That puts the roster at an even 40 eligible players which is the limit in 2025. That number will drop to 34 next season.
Perfect Game ranked the Tigers No. 2 in their preseason rankings. LSU will open the season with Purdue-Fort Wayne on February 14.
