Danny Lachenmayer brings swing-and-miss lefty relief upside to LSU
In the 2026 season, Danny Lachenmayer has emerged as a real weapon out of LSU’s bullpen, stacking high-leverage strikeout bursts and giving the Tigers a needed left-handed punch. His calling card is bat-missing stuff: after posting a 2.37 ERA with 56 strikeouts in 38.0 innings and nine saves at North Dakota State in the 2025 season, he earned top-transfer recognition and quickly translated that profile to LSU with sharp relief outings. He looks like a fit for teams that value fearless, late-inning competition and a southpaw who can change the feel of an inning in a hurry.
