Cade Kurland transfers to LSU baseball from Florida ahead of 2027 season

Cade Kurland, a former Florida second baseman, has officially transferred to LSU baseball, aiming to enhance their infield for the upcoming 2027 season. Kurland, a four-year starter, joins former Texas State player Dawson Park and Notre Dame's Bino Watters in the transfer class. After aiding Florida to the College World Series in 2023 and posting impressive offensive numbers, Kurland's experience is considered vital to LSU's efforts to rebound from missing the NCAA Tournament last year. Kurland's injury history, including shoulder surgery and an oblique injury, raises some concerns, but his commitment is now secure after withdrawing from the MLB Draft to play at LSU.
