The South Carolina Gamecocks currently hold the best transfer portal class in college baseball.

The South Carolina Gamecocks had a disapointing season on the baseball diamond this year after finishing second to last in the conference. That has led to a litany of players entering the transfer portal, so something need to go South Carolina’s way to start building momentum. They have finally found some.

With the transfer portal open, Paul Mainieri and his staff have been making moves of their own. They currently have six players committed with 17 total players leaving the roster. Those six players committed though have the Gamecocks sitting at the top of the transfer portal class rankings.

Four of the transfers committed to South Carolina are top 250 players. That’s more than any other program in the top 10. That’s significant considering two of the players that have left the roster were also top 250 players.

The transfer portal has become a pivotal portion of college sports, but baseball especially. Georgia’s head coach Wes Johnson has utilized it to get the program into postseason play in the first two years he was there. Tennessee’s Tony Vitello signed Andrew Fischer and Liam Doyle out of the portal and they have arguably been the best two players on the team.

If Mainieri and his staff can continue to crush the portal like they have so far, they will be in good shape heading into the 2026 college baseball season. The portal will remain open until July 1st.

South Carolina picks up another commitment out of the transfer portal this week as right hander Elijah Foster announces his decision to come to Columbia on Instagram.

Foster spent the last two seasons in Fairfield, Connecticut, playing for the Pioneers. The 6-foot and 190 pound sophomore out of Plainfield, New Jersey, was 5-3 in 15 starts on the mound in 2025. Foster had a 5.23 ERA in 72.1 innings pitched, with 76 strikeouts, and 42 runs given up.

South Carolina is no stranger to Foster’s game on the mound. The Gamecocks and Pioneers matched up for the opening series in 2025, where Foster was the game two starter for Sacred Heart. He would go on to have a rough outing in his first start of 2025. The Pioneers would make a pitching change after the third inning of Foster’s start. He would finish giving up six earned runs (nine in total), three strikeouts, and six walks.

The Gamecocks are retooling a roster that has lost 15 players in the transfer portal since it opened on June 2. Foster joins fellow pitchers Josh Gregoire, Cullen Horowicz, and Amp Phillips as additions to the pitching staff this portal cycle.
