LSU baseball is losing a talented right-handed pitcher to the transfer portal as Jaden Noot announced plans to leave LSU. The portal officially opened on Monday and Noot is one of several Tigers looking for a new home.
Noot was a redshirt junior in 2026 and spent four years with the Tigers. He was with the program for both of Jay Johnson's national championships, though he redshirted in 2023 after undergoing Tommy John surgery. But in 2025, Noot was a contributor on LSU's national title team.
Noot made two NCAA Tournament appearances in 2025, including throwing a big inning in LSU's thrilling 6-5 win over Arkansas in the College World Series.
Noot appeared in 27 games over the last three years, owning a 4.95 ERA over 40 innings. After pitching 32.2 innings in 2025, Noot only tossed 9.1 innings in 2026. With one year of eligibility remaining, Noot will search for more playing time elsewhere.
Noot signed with LSU in 2022 despite being drafted by the Milwaukee Brewers. Coming out of high school, Noot was one of the top pitching prospects in California. Johnson took advantage of his West Coast ties to woo Noot to Baton Rouge.
LSU baseball disappointed in 2026 as the Tigers missed the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2011. After the letdown, Johnson and staff will look to reshape the roster.
