Jose Carmona Jr. gives LMU a pro-ready catcher with pop, leadership, and a solid bat
Jose Carmona Jr. enters Loyola Marymount as a transfer catcher with a track record of impact: in the 2025 season at Odessa College, he hit .314 with 2 home runs, 32 RBI, 22 runs, and 4 stolen bases across 45 games. The real separator is the all-around package—6'2", 205 pounds, left-right balance, experience as a team captain, and a profile that suggests steadiness behind the plate plus enough offensive thump to matter. If a roster wants a mature, physical catcher who can handle the room and contribute offensively, he’s a strong fit.
