A few days after Clemson baseball coach Erik Bakich said that his team wasn't finished in the transfer portal, the Tigers added another arm to their 2026 pitching staff.
Former Tennessee Volunteers pitcher Michael Sharman has committed to Clemson, he announced in a social media post to Instagram late Saturday.
A 6-foot-1, 198-pound left-hander, Sharman spent one year with the Vols after transferring from the JUCO ranks at Georgia Highlands in 2024. A redshirt junior last season, he pitched in 17 games for Tony Vitello's club. In 22 2/3 innings, Sharman posted a 3-1 record with a 3.18 ERA.
Sharman was used mostly in relief but made three starts in midweek games in 2025. He struck out 25 batters and walked 10 while holding opposing hitters to a .229 average.
Sharman is the eighth player to commit to Clemson from the transfer portal since the Tigers' season ended with a 16-4 loss to Kentucky in the NCAA Tournament at Doug Kingsmore Stadium. He's the third pitcher to join the Tigers via the portal.
Clemson's most recent additions in the portal were outfielder Nate Savoie from Loyola Marymount in the West Coast Conference on June 13, and Western Kentucky outfielder Ryan Wideman (June 11). Wideman was considered one of the best overall players available in the portal class.
Here's a full list of players Clemson has added and lost in the transfer portal.
