LSU third baseman Tommy White has been selected by the Oakland Athletics with the 40th overall pick in the 2024 MLB Draft after a dominant three-year collegiate career. After one season with North Carolina State, White made the decision to depart the Wolfpack and take his talents to Baton Rouge for his final two seasons of college ball.
He put up a stellar line of .377/.435/.729 with 24 home runs including one of the most iconic homers in College World Series history to send LSU to the finals. Jump, a redshirt sophomore left-hander from Aliso, Calif., recorded a 6-2 mark and a 3.47 ERA in 83.0 innings this season with 22 walks and 101 strikeouts while limiting opponents to a .218 batting average.
Jump retired 12 of the final 13 batters he faced at Missouri, including 10 by strikeout. His 14 strikeouts marked the most by an LSU pitcher since Ty Floyd recorded 17 strikeouts versus Florida in the 2023 College World Series.Pittsburgh Pirates San Diego Padres Thatcher Hurd: New York Yankees
