UNC Baseball: Alberto Osuna enters the transfer portal
Alberto Osuna wasn't eligible to return to the UNC baseball program to begin with, as he's exhausted his Division I eligibility. However, the Diamond Heels designated hitter has entered the transfer portal, as Division II and Division III programs could be an option for next season.
In three seasons with the UNC baseball program, Osuna clubbed 45 home runs, a mark that stands for fifth most by a single player in program history. His best year as a Tar Heel was this past season, as he hit .281 with 14 home runs and 56 RBIs.
Unfortunately, most UNC baseball fans will remember his massive slump in postseason play, one that resulted in him being benched during the College World Series. However, that shouldn't take away from the fact that Osuna was a very productive player for the Diamond Heels during his career, as he'll now look to continue his baseball career elsewhere.
Scott Forbes and the UNC baseball program are losing quite a few offensive pieces from this year's everyday lineup, including some notable reserves who were originally starters for the program. The depth of this year's squad was notable, as the lineup was filled with veteran players who were very productive in their respective roles.
Osuna was a great addition for the UNC baseball program, as he was one of the most productive power hitters in the country during his collegiate career.
