LSU baseball updates roster with transfers and draft considerations
Summary

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. With the draft upcoming, the program will gauge the impact of how many of its draft-eligible players are selected and how many incoming recruits might opt to sign with MLB clubs instead. LSU's roster continues to take shape with both returners and newcomers ahead of next season.
