The high-flying Oregon State baseball player, Andy Atwood, has officially announced his decision to transfer away from the program. We hinted towards a potential transfer last week, but Atwood made it official via Twitter Thursday afternoon.
Andy Atwood is an extremely talented baseball player, but his natural position is the middle infield (shortstop/second base). Unfortunately for Atwood, those spots have already been claimed by Nick Madrigal and Cadyn Grenier. That competition combined with the talented incoming recruiting class and other factors caused Andy Atwood to transfer to receive more playing time and jump start his professional prospects.
