Diego Alana brings switch-hitting infield versatility and steady bat-to-ball upside to Lamar
In the 2025 season, Diego Alana hit .288 with 51 hits, 9 doubles, 1 home run, 14 RBIs, and 3 steals at Eastern Kentucky, and Lamar lists him as a senior transfer infielder with broad defensive experience across shortstop, third, and second base[1][4]. The big appeal: he’s a switch-hitter who gives a staff lineup flexibility, dependable contact skill, and enough athletic range to move around the dirt—exactly the kind of glue guy coaches love when they want stability, not just flash[1][4].
