It is expected to be another busy offseason for the Arkansas baseball team.
The Razorbacks must replace several departing position players with transfers from other programs, and it would not surprise for Arkansas to have multiple players transfer away.
We will update this page throughout the offseason to update on the Razorbacks’ latest personnel movement.

TRANSFERRING FROM ARKANSAS TO ANOTHER PROGRAM

Jones practiced at third base last fall and was given playing time in left field during his sophomore season when he played 23 games.

Grimes previously played at Texas-San Antonio and McLennan (Texas) Community College. He played in 19 games and started five times on the Razorbacks’ SEC championship team in 2023, and his late-game assist to home plate from left field was key to a victory over Texas A&M that year. Grimes did not play in 2024.
