Auburn baseball's 'rock solid foundation' creates positive outlook from Baseball America
Auburn baseball loses a ton from its Super Regional team in 2025, but a reloaded roster will put the Tigers in position to compete for Omaha next season. Auburn baseball turned in one of the nation's best turnarounds in 2025, and are poised for bigger dreams next season. One year after winning just 27 games, and posting an 8-22 record against SEC foes, the Auburn Tigers bounced back to improve their win total by 14 games and hosted its first-ever Super Regional. College baseball experts at Baseball America feel that the Tigers have plenty left in the tank, and will compete for a slot at the College World Series in 2026. In its "way-too-early" top 25 for the 2026 season, Baseball America placed Auburn at No. 5 after finishing the 2025 season at No. 10. Jacob Rudner and Peter Flaherty point out that true freshmen such as Chris Rembert, Christian Chatterton, and Eric Guevara, as well as transfers Todd Clay and Drew Whalen, will keep Auburn at the top of the SEC, as well as the nation, next season. Auburn rapidly climbed from the SEC cellar back into the league's elite in 2025, more than doubling its eight conference wins from the year prior. That success was fueled in part by key contributors no longer with the program—namely ace Samuel Dutton and outfielder Ike Irish—whose production will be tough to replicate. But returning talents Chris Rembert, Chase Fralick, Eric Guevara, Bub Terrell, Christian Chatterton and Andreas Alvarez provide a rock-solid foundation the Tigers have built upon through recruiting. Auburn bolstered its pitching staff with the additions of Drew Whalen (Western Kentucky), Ethan Harden (Belmont) and Jake Marciano (Virginia Tech). Offensively, Ryan Farber (Texas State), Todd Clay (Alabama-Birmingham) and Logan Greggorio (Northern Illinois) are promising additions. Pitching and infield will be the areas Auburn head coach Butch Thompson will aim to rebuild for next season after graduation and the MLB draft ravaged the Tigers' roster. Infielders Cooper McMurray, Eric Snow, and Deric Fabian, as well as pitchers Samuel Dutton, Parker Carlson, Cade Fisher, Carson Myers, Cam Tilly, Dylan Watts, and Hayden Murphy were all drafted by Major League Baseball organizations. The greatest loss will be Ike Irish, who was selected No. 19 overall by the Baltimore Orioles. Irish's versatility in the field, as well as his power at the plate, will be missed greatly next season. However, Thompson's ability to prepare will aid Auburn this season. Auburn will return several key players including catcher Chase Fralick, outfielders Lucas Steele and Bub Terrell, and infielder Eric Guevara and Chris Rembert, all return to the Auburn lineup next season. Christian Chatterton, Jackson Sanders, Andreas Alvarez, Alex Petrovic, and Saxon Roberts return to the Tigers' pitching staff while others such as Mason Koch, Connor Gatwood, and Trevor Booton look to log more innings in 2026. Baseball America's top-five is SEC heavy. Defending College World Series champion LSU checks in at No. 2, followed by Texas at No. 3 and Mississippi State at No. 4. UCLA is the top team to watch this season according to Baseball America as they are set to return many lineup pieces, as well as their entire weekend rotation. The Bruins finished 44-18 with a College World Series appearance, and will aim for the same target next season.

Chris Rembert named to Team USA Collegiate National Team
Following an absolutely fantastic freshman campaign on the Plains, Auburn infielder Chris Rembert earned a coveted spot on the Team USA Collegiate National Team this week. The Pensacola, Florida native was one of 26 players named to the roster last Friday. Only seven freshman made the team. Other than the entire body of work athletes displayed throughout the 2025 college baseball season, Team USA evaluators chose the final roster based on the performance of each player throughout a six-day training camp involving 56 participants. The Auburn freshman, who is now just the 12th player in program history to be named to the Team USA Collegiate National Team, raked throughout his time at camp. In five games, the 6-foot, 202-pound middle infielder showed off the sneaky power that led to 34 extra base hits in 209 at bats during his freshman season at Auburn. Rembert collected 6 hits in 15 plate appearances. One of those hits was a 444-foot leadoff home run, showing off the surprising pop off the freshman's bat. Rembert also stole a pair of bases and came around to score four times in five games. The "stat sheet stuffing" came as no surprise to those familiar with Rembert's game. An All-SEC Second Team and Freshman All-American selection, the sensational first-year Tiger slashed .344 in his first season on the Plains while finding his way on base nearly half of the time he appeared at the dish. Now a member of Team USA, Rembert will join his 25 teammates in Japan when his squad takes part in the 45th USA vs. Japan Collegiate All-Star Series from July 8-13. He is the only Auburn Tiger on the roster, and one of three freshman from the SEC to represent his country.
