Another day, another tweet with a tiger emoji from LSU coach Jay Johnson.

Another day, another tweet with a tiger emoji from [autotag]Jay Johnson[/autotag]. As you all know, that is always good news. The good news is that LSU has landed another talented player out of the transfer portal.

LSU lost [autotag]Paxton Kling[/autotag] to the transfer portal earlier but it looks like the Tigers have filled that spot as LSU landed Auburn outfielder [autotag]Chris Stanfield[/autotag] out of the portal. Stanfield spent his last two seasons as a starter for the Auburn Tigers and he had two productive years.

As a freshman, he finished with a .280 batting average with eight doubles, two triples, three homers and 22 RBI. Last season as a sophomore he finished with a .276 batting average with eight doubles, one triple, four homers and 25 RBI.

Stanfield could be a starter on day one for LSU as he brings SEC experience and a plethora of talent to Baton Rouge. Johnson has been killing it in the portal.
