🚨Top 25 Update🚨
Arkansas has made quite a surge in the last 24 hours (and I don't think they're done) and has jumped all the way up to number 2. As always, you can check out the full rankings - of all 942 baseball and 976 softball teams - at the link below

Josh McDevitt and Kam Durnin both have very legitimate shots to be drafted as in 2025 82.8% of players who were invited to the combine were selected in the MLB Draft. Congrats on Kam and Josh on this achievement and wishing best of luck in these upcoming weeks!

Anthony Diaz joins a long list of talented and veteran incoming transfers for the Missouri Tigers. The senior centerfielder posted a .307 BA in 50 games for the New Mexico Lobos in 2026 and he looks to be a key piece of Missouri’s offensive overhaul this offseason.
#MizzouNOW
Cam Pruitt is the newest incoming transfer for the Missouri Tigers. The former Lipscomb Bison posted a team-leading .357 BA with 48 RBIs in 2026. The senior infielder is yet another solid addition to Mizzou’s rebuilding offense.

Sources: @MizzouBaseball is hiring Brandon Van Horn as its new hitting coach, replacing Bryson LeBlanc, I'm told. Van Horn spent time at New Mexico State before joining the @astros organization as a hitting coach.
UPDATED CAROUSEL: d1baseball.com/coaching-buzz…
Brandon Van Horn is Mizzou’s newest addition to the coaching staff. As Missouri’s hitting coach, Van Horn will have to revive a Tiger offense that has lost five qualified hitters via graduation or the transfer portal so far this offseason.

Missouri’s second transfer pickup of the day is Ryan Marton. The former UNLV Rebel pitched in 13 games last season through 19.0 IP with 22 Ks, just 9 BBs, and a 6.16 ERA. At 6 feet and 4 inches, Marton is quite literally a BIG addition for this Tiger pitching staff.

Javier Gorostola is Missouri’s newest addition to the transfer class. The 2026 All-ASUN First Team Honoree batted .370 with 81 hits, 13 HRs, and 54 RBIs in his redshirt sophomore season. Gorostola joins Wilfred Gonzalez as Missouri’s second incoming transfer from FGCU.

Woke up an All-American!! Congratulations to @TyWaid outstanding year! Also, Ty tied the Home Run record with 28! That’s what we call having a Record Year!
Steve Solorzano is Mizzou’s next addition to the portal class. Across Solorzano’s three seasons at New Mexico State, he started in 132 games with 176 hits and 110 RBIs. The senior infielder is set to be another veteran addition to Missouri’s 2026 team.

After an amazing visit this week with Coach Jackson and the coaching staff at University of Missouri, I am excited and blessed to announce that I have committed to further my academic and baseball career as a Tiger!
ALT Royals Roster Move:
- Recalled Outfielder Kameron Misner from Omaha (AAA).
- Placed Outfielder Kyle Isbel on the 10-Day Injured List with left plantar fasciitis.
I am forever grateful for the opportunities the University of Missouri has afforded me. Thank you to my coaches, staff, tutors, and professors for your support over the last three years. After time and consideration, I have decided to explore my options in the transfer portal.
Mateo Serna announced his intent to enter the transfer portal this evening via Instagram. Serna spent his first three years playing for Missouri amassing 102 career hits, 76 RBIs, and 7 overturned ABS challenges in one game. Good luck to Mateo on his future endeavors!
