The college baseball transfer portal has officially been open for two weeks as Josh Elander and his staff look to rebuild Tennessee’s roster after an underwhelming 2027 season.
Tennessee has lost 16 players to the transfer portal to date with a handful beginning to find their new homes. The Vols are returning a number of key players from last season’s team while landing two commitments in the transfer portal.
Here’s what the Vols roster and portal movement looks like with the portal open for two weeks.
