LSU baseball is finalizing its 2027 roster as the MLB Draft approaches. After missing the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2011, LSU has secured six transfer commitments and retained key players like shortstop Steven Milam. The Tigers also lost six players to the transfer portal, but the departures are characterized as manageable.
