Texas A&M baseball loses RHP pitcher to the 2025 transfer portal
Like all college sports, the loose transfer rules mean that athletes have the opportunity to move on to a new team in the hopes of finding a better fit for their career from year to year. Texas A&M baseball is not immune to this phenomenon, and on Friday, they saw their first public transfer announcement of a player leaving the program.
Talented junior RHP Kyrin LeBlanc announced via social media that he will be entering the 2025 transfer portal after his lone season in Aggieland. The transfer from Cisco College did not make any appearances during the season, despite an Aggie bullpen that struggled to find its footing for most of the season.
He has significant potential and has reached speeds of 100 mph with his fastball multiple times in his career. However, he has struggled with control, leading to 29 walks with 37 strikeouts before joining A&M. Below, you can see the official announcement from LeBlanc's X account.

MSU's newest commit, 3-star LB Braylon Hodge reportedly cancels remaining official visits
MSU's newest commit, 3-star LB Braylon Hodge reportedly cancels remaining official visits Michigan State picked up a commitment from a prized linebacker prospect on Sunday, and it appears he is locked in with the Spartans for the long haul. High-end three-star linebacker Braylon Hodge of Englewood, Colo. committed to Michigan State on Sunday afternoon following his official visit to the Spartans' campus. As part of that commitment, Justin Thind of 247Sports is reporting that Hodge will cancel his other previously scheduled official visits to Iowa, Utah and Minnesota. Thind considered this as "impressive" on the Spartans' part and added that Hodge's commitment was a "great start to June" for Michigan State. Hodge ranks as the No. 45 linebacker in the 2026 class, according to 247Sports. He holds a recruiting rating of 88 -- which is close to being a four-star prospect -- and is a top player in the state of Colorado. Like Thind, I found this additional report on the cancelling of Hodge's other official visits as notable. This was the first official visit Hodge took, and with no other official visits planned now, it seems like Michigan State will be in a great position to retain this commitment all the way to signing day in December.

Diamondbacks beat Nationals 3-1 but lose starting pitcher Corbin Burnes to possible injury
PHOENIX (AP) — Eugenio Suárez homered to cap Arizona's three-run first inning in a 3-1 victory over the Washington Nationals 3-1 on Sunday, but the Diamondbacks might have lost starting pitcher Corbin Burnes to an elbow injury. Burnes, who had three of his six strikeouts in the first inning, left with two outs and CJ Abrams on base in the fifth after throwing his 70th pitch. He motioned to the dugout and appeared to mouth, 'My elbow,' to a teammate before walking off the field with a 3-0 lead. Manager Torey Lovullo told reporters after the game that Burnes had discomfort in his right elbow and would have an MRI on Monday. The Diamondbacks, who snapped a four-game skid despite not getting a hit after the first inning, staked Burnes to the lead when Ketel Marte hit a leadoff single against Mitchell Parker (4-5) and took second on a flyout. Lourdes Gurriel Jr. doubled to score Marte and Suárez followed with his 15th homer — a 466-foot shot to center. The blast tied Suárez with the Phillies' Kyle Schwarber for the fifth longest this season. The Angels' Mike Trout leads with a 484-footer against the Giants on April 19. It turned out it was Arizona's final hit. Jalen Beeks replaced Burnes in the fifth and gave up an RBI single to Nathaniel Lowe before striking out Luis García Jr. to end it. Cristian Mena (1-0) was recalled from Triple-A Reno before the game and pitched two scoreless innings for his first win in his third career appearance. Justin Martinez pitched a perfect ninth for his fourth save. The Nationals had their four-game win streak stopped — one short of their season high. Key moment Arizona will monitor the status of Burnes, who was signed to a six-year deal worth $210 million before the season to anchor the staff. Key stat Burnes didn't get his first win until his sixth start when he beat the Mets on April 30. But he went 2-1 in four May starts with a 1.67 ERA. Up next RHP Trevor Williams (3-5, 5.69) starts Tuesday as the Nationals begin a six-game homestand with three against the Cubs, who will send out RHP Cade Horton (2-0, 3.98) for his fourth career start. The Diamondbacks will start RHP Zac Gallen (3-7, 5.54) on Tuesday against Braves, who will start RHP Spencer Strider (0-3, 4.50). ___
