Tennessee baseball reached the College World Series for the second time in three seasons thanks to key contributions from transfers.

The Vols will be active in the transfer portal once again looking to bring in talent again after landing the likes of shortstop Maui Ahuna, third baseman Zane Denton, pitcher Andrew Lindsey, and designated hitter Griffin Merritt to bolster the 2023 roster.

Here is who is joining and leaving the Vols via the portal:

Kyle Booker — Outfielder

Booker started 10 of the first 12 games in the outfield in 2023, but was inconsistent and fell out of the lineup. He hit .259 in 84 games in three seasons at UT. He showed promise as a freshman, hitting .310 with six extra-base hits but never built on the season in 2022 or 2023.

Austen Jaslove — Shortstop

Logan Chambers — Utility

Chambers committed to Missouri State. He was a sparingly used reserve in his two seasons behind key cogs such as third baseman Trey Lipscomb. He hit .220 in 37 games with 19 starts. He hit one homer and had seven RBIs after transferring from junior college.

Jake Fitzgibbons − Pitcher

Fitzbibbons was drafted by the Arizona Diamondbacks in the 14th round and signed. He had his biggest role in his third season, but still was toward the back end of the UT bullpen. He posted a 3.75 ERA in 12 innings in 17 appearances. The Mount Juliet native pitched in 30 games in three years at Tennessee.

Alex Stanwich − Outfielder

Stanwich was one of the top incomers for the Vols in the 2022 recruiting class. He took the spring semester off "to get some things sorted out," Vitello said in February. UT expected then Stanwich would be back in the fall but he entered the portal. He has committed to Miami University in Ohio.
