Texas A&M baseball loses RHP pitcher to the 2025 transfer portal
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.

It was the third time this season Soriano (4-5) has gone at least six innings and not allowed a run. The right-hander allowed only four hits with two strikeouts and four walks.

Adell singled to right with one out in the second to drive in Soler, who drew a walk off Luis Ortiz (2-6) to lead off the inning. The Halos added a pair of runs in the seventh when Scott Kingery scored on a passed ball and Soler had a run-scoring single to center.

What happened was he had the hamstring issue earlier. His lead leg is not where it needs to be. He's got some moving parts,' Reds' manager Terry Francona said. 'There's multiple concerns. We're sending him out there. He's either going to get hurt or pitch the way he needs to. It's just not fair. We're going to give him a chance to get right.'
