Alabama baseball's season ended last week with two losses at the Tallahassee Regional. With the first season of the Rob Vaughn era completed, the Tide turns its attention to the offseason, where the transfer portal is set to impact the roster once again.
Last offseason, Alabama was impacted by portal losses more significantly due to a coaching change. However, Vaughn was able to bring in some impact transfers as well, including Ian Petrutz (Maryland), T.J. McCants (Ole Miss), Gage Miller (Bishop State Community College) and Greg Farone (Louisville).
According to D1Baseball's transfer portal tracker, Alabama has already seen some members of the 2024 team enter the portal. Follow along here for updates on Alabama baseball's transfers in and out:

Alabama baseball players entering the transfer portal
According to D1 Baseball's transfer portal tracker
Parker Picot
True freshman outfielder Parker Picot announced that he had entered the transfer portal on June 13 on X. Picot saw time in three games in his freshman campaign, recording one hit in three at-bats.
Alton Davis II
One of the biggest names out of the Alabama bullpen entered the portal on June 6. Alton Davis II, a preseason All-SEC selection as a relief pitcher, has entered his name in the portal, according to a report by Kendall Rogers of D1Baseball.
Davis was named freshman all-SEC in 2023 and led the SEC with six saves in conference play. His play noticeably declined in 2024, especially near the end of the season, but he led Alabama's relievers in strikeouts. Davis still has massive upside and becomes one of the top arms available in the portal.
Luke Williams
Redshirt freshman Luke Williams entered the portal June 5. Williams did not see any playing time during his two seasons at Alabama. Williams was named the Tuscaloosa News high school player of the year in 2022 after his senior season at Hillcrest.
Camden Hayslip
Outfielder Camden Hayslip entered the portal June 4. He saw time in seven games in 2024 and made two starts as a designated hitter. Hayslip played more as a freshman in 2022 and a sophom*ore in 2023, hitting a home run in both seasons, but was never able to carve out a consistent starting role.
Jackson Baker
Freshman pitcher Jackson Baker entered the portal on June 4, he announced on X (formerly known as Twitter).
Baker threw one scoreless, hitless inning against Valparaiso in his freshman year.
Evan Haeger
Freshman outfielder Evan Haeger entered the portal on June 3, he announced on X. He did not see playing time during his freshman season.
On June 12, Haeger announced via X that he is transferring to Houston.
Sammy Leis
Sammy Leis, a redshirt freshman catcher, entered the portal on June 3. He did not see game action in his two seasons at Alabama.
Joey Rubin
Infielder Joey Rubin entered the portal on May 25, before Alabama's appearance in the NCAA Tournament. Rubin transferred from Rollins College last offseason but did not see playing time during his first season at Alabama.
Alabama baseball additions from the transfer portal
Jason Torres (Miami)
Miami first baseman Jason Torres announced on Instagram on June 13 that he would join the Crimson Tide in 2025. In 39 games with the Hurricanes in 2024, Torres hit .331 with 32 RBIs and eight home runs.
Garrett Staton (Samford)
Samford third baseman Garrett Staton, a second-team all-Southern Conference selection, announced via X on June 5 that he will transfer to Alabama.
Staton hit 19 home runs with 69 RBIs for Samford in 2024. Alabama saw Staton twice this season as the Tide played a home-and-home with the Bulldogs. Staton impressed in those two matchups, hitting 3-for-10 with a home run, a double, three RBIs and scoring three runs.
Staton could be a replacement for Gage Miller, who seems likely to turn pro after a strong season.
Carson Ozmer (Penn)
Carson Ozmer announced on X in October 2023 that he would play his graduate senior season at Alabama following his senior year at Penn. Ozmer was an honorable mention all-Ivy selection as a relief pitcher in 2023. In 2024, Ozmer pitched 40⅓ innings with a 4.02 ERA.
