Former Nicholls State right-handed pitcher Jacob Mayers announced his commitment to LSU out of the transfer portal on Sunday.

Mayers is LSU's eight commitment out of the transfer portal this offseason. Per SI.com:

quote:

In 2024, Mayers logged a 4.58 ERA with 106 strikeouts on the season, but his room for improvement will come in the walk category after walking a whopping 76 batters.

The command issues raise concerns, but when in a groove, Mayers is a dominant pitcher on the mound. He held his opponent batting averages to .170 over the course of his first two seasons with Nicholls State while adding impressive velocity.

Getting players from the TP reminds me of a contestant on the price is right winning the dryer instead of the jet ski. Both functional…. One is just way cooler to win.
