Texas A&M’s bullpen added another arm from the portal

The Aggie pitching rotation will be adding another arm into the mix as they pick up another transfer

The former San Diego State University sophomore has a 7-1 career record, a live arm, and is a talented athlete overall. Below is the pre-college bio from the Aztecs website:
