Former Tennessee baseball transfer commit to play in Knoxville
Former Tennessee baseball transfer commit to play in Knoxville Ryan Galanie committed to Tennessee baseball on July 2, 2023. He never played for the Vols after transferring from Wofford. The 2023 Southern Conference Player of the Year was selected by the White Sox in the 13th round of the 2023 MLB draft (No. 389 overall). "To the Tennessee fans that supported me, I appreciate all the love," Galanie said. "There wasn't a fan base in college baseball that could've supported me more with pure class. I know I never got to suit up for the Vols, but I can't say thank you enough." Galanie was assigned to Chicago's Double-A affiliate Birmingham on April 29 from High-A Winston-Salem. The former Tennessee transfer commit will play in Knoxville, Tuesday-Sunday, against the Smokies at Covenant Health Park. More: Former Tony Vitello recruit hits two-run walk-off bunt for Smokies Galanie started 58 games at first base in 2023 for Wofford. He recorded 17 home runs, 88 hits, 66 RBIs, 73 runs, 40 walks, 35 stolen bases and a .383 batting average, earning Southern Conference Player of the Year and All-Southern Conference First-Team honors. Galanie started 59 games at third base for Wofford in 2022. He appeared in 28 games, including nine starts at third base and one start as a designated hitter, in 2021. First pitch for Tuesday's series opener between the Smokies and Barons is scheduled for 7 p.m. EDT. The former Tennessee commit enters the series in Knoxville with a .313 batting average in 22 games with the Barons. He has totaled 25 hits (two home runs, six doubles, one triple), 13 RBIs, 11 runs, six walks and two stolen bases. Follow Vols Wire on Facebook and X (formerly Twitter).
