1. Eric Becker
Former Team: Virginia | New Team: Undecided

Virginia’s offense leaned on Eric Becker, who slashed .368/.453/.617 with 31 extra-base hits and 52 RBIs over 50 games before entering the portal. He uses a direct left-handed swing to spray line drives, showing more hit than raw power but capable of opposite-field impact. With strong barrel control and a sound approach, he profiles as a long-term shortstop target with high draft upside.

10. C Garrett Wright
Former Team: Bowling Green | New Team: Tennessee

Garrett Wright’s sophomore season was a revelation: he slashed .396/.506/.644, logged 31 extra-base hits (20 doubles), drove in 48 runs, and walked more than he struck out. At 5'11", 185 lbs, he combines a sturdy lower half with a tall, slightly open stance. His quick hands and reliable bat-to-ball ability make him a consistently dangerous hitter.
9. 1B/OF Henry Ford
Former Team: Virginia | New Team: Undecided

Henry Ford slashed .362/.420/.575 with 21 extra-base hits and 46 RBIs at Virginia before entering the portal after his coach’s departure. At 6'5", 225 lbs, he offers raw pull-side power but can be stiff at the plate and expands the zone. After one season in the outfield despite limited range and average arm, he projects best in a corner spot long-term.
8. OF Ryan Wideman
Former Team: Western Kentucky | New Team: Clemson

A Georgia Highlands transfer, Ryan Wideman hit .398/.466/.652 with 36 extra-base hits, 68 RBIs, and 45 steals. At 6'5" and 215 lbs, his athletic frame fuels plus power, speed, and center-field range. He uses a high leg lift, shows bat speed to the pull side, and projects as an early-round draft pick.
7. C Carson Tinney
Former Team: Notre Dame | New Team: Undecided

Carson Tinney broke out after limited freshman ABs, slashing .348/.498/.753 with 17 homers and strong bat speed. At 6'3", 220 lbs, he shows pull-side pop but must sharpen pitch recognition. Despite size, his accurate arm and solid receiving craft project him as a long-term catcher option.
6. 2B Jarren Advincula
Former Team: California | New Team: Undecide

After earning the Cape League batting crown and hitting .342/.410/.506 with 25 extra-base hits, 33 RBIs, and 13 steals as a Cal freshman, Jarren Advincula’s quick, line-drive swing and strong plate feel have drawn major transfer interest.
5. LHP Trey Beard
Former Team: Florida Atlantic | New Team: Florida State

Ranked highly early, Trey Beard posted a 3.14 ERA with 118 strikeouts and 32 walks over 86 innings. His 6'9" frame and over-the-top delivery create a steep angle, while a low-90s fastball that “rises” pairs with a sharp mid-70s changeup and biting curve, plus a distinct slider. That arsenal and his strikeout-to-walk ratio make him a top arm to watch.
4. OF Ethan Conrad
Former Team: Wake Forest | New Team: Undecided

Limited by a shoulder injury to just 21 games, Ethan Conrad still slashed .372/.495/.744 with eight doubles, seven homers, 27 RBIs and more walks than strikeouts. With a compact, direct swing and a sturdy build, he shows above-average hit, power and speed. Though his arm is average, his athleticism gives him a real shot to stick in center field.
3. SS/3B Chris Hacopian
Former Team: Maryland | New Team: Undecided

Chris Hacopian has consistently raked, most recently slashing .375/.502/.656 with 14 homers, 61 RBIs and a 40:19 walk-to-strikeout mark. His quick bat and elite barrel control drive high contact rates—especially on heaters—making him a valuable bat regardless of his eventual defensive spot.
2. AJ Gracia
Former Team: Duke | New Team: Virginia

AJ Gracia broke out as a freshman, hitting .305/.440/.559 with 14 doubles and homers. Midseason tweaks—lower hands, closed front side, streamlined load—boosted his contact and power. His strong build, quick hands, and plate discipline allow all-field damage and minimal chase, making him a consistent run producer.
1. Eric Becker
