Tye Wood gives Tulane a steady, high-OBP table-setter with gap power
In the 2025 season at New Mexico, Tye Wood hit .317 with a .448 on-base percentage, 14 doubles, five homers, and seven stolen bases, then arrived at Tulane as a graduate transfer with clear leadoff-spot value. He started every game in left field early in 2026 and was tied for the team lead in two-out RBIs, a good sign of poise in pressure spots. The appeal is simple: disciplined bat, extra-base upside, speed, and lineup flexibility—very fit for a team that wants an experienced, competitive spark plug.
