The Florida Gators have lost one of their best incoming transfers to the MLB Draft
The right-handed pitcher made 38 appearances and posted a 20-1 record over four years with the Samford Bulldogs. During this span, he recorded a 3.89 ERA and struckout 158 batters in 180.1 innings.
His best season in a Bulldogs uniform was last year. In 2024, Ross had a career-best 3.27 ERA and went a perfect 13-0 in 15 starts. Additionally, he struck out 88 batters to just 21 walks in 96.1 innings of work. While this is a big blow to the Gators pitching staff, there are still solutions to help mitigate his loss. The transfer portal is still open for business, and there are still quality pitchers within.), Schuyler Sandford and Joshua Whritenour are among the quality pitching recruits that the Gators will have joining them next season.
Although of this talent group, one still has a decision to make after being drafted on Day 3 of the MLB Draft. Righty Jayden Dubanewicz was drafted in the 16th round by the Milwaukee Brewers and it hasn’t been reported yet which way he is leaning. Losing Ross is a tough blow, but the Florida Gators and coach Kevin O’Sullivan will definitely have a plan on how to help ease this pain.
