Auburn center fielder Bristol Carter has entered the transfer portal, according to On3's Pete Nakos.
He spent two seasons on the Plains and will have one season of eligibility at his next stop. He is also eligible for the 2026 MLB Draft. He played in 49 of Auburn's 64 games this season, making 45 starts. He hit .298 with a .428 on-base percentage, 25 RBI, and 50 runs scored. While he had just seven doubles and two home runs, he stole 31 bases, getting thrown out just once.
Carter, who is from Oak Ridge, North Carolina, transferred to Auburn ahead of the 2025 season after an excellent freshman season with the East Carolina Pirates. He hit .243 in his first season on the Plains, finishing with 13 RBI, 24 runs, and 14 stolen bases.
While Carter was a proven player, the Tigers might have already replaced him through the transfer portal. Georgia State outfielder John Beverley committed to Auburn on Wednesday and should fill a similar spot in the lineup. He hit .365 with 38 RBI and 46 runs scored last season, stealing 32 bases.
Auburn went 43-22 in 2026, earning the No. 4 overall seed in the NCAA Tournament. They lost to the Ole Miss Rebels in the Auburn Super Regional, the same stage at which their season ended in each of the past two years.
