Alberto Osuna joined Tennessee baseball on Feb. 1. He is seeking eligibility to play in 2025 based on NCAA ruling in Vanderbilt QB Diego Pavia's case.

Former junior college baseball player Alberto Osuna is seeking an injunction to get another year of eligibility so he can play for Tennessee this season.

With Opening Day less than two weeks away, Tennessee baseball might have gained another first base option with the transfer addition of Alberto Osuna. The news of the addition was confirmed to Volquest on Friday night. Osuna, who spent three seasons at North Carolina and was a part of the Tar Heel College World Series squad in 2024, was set to play for Division II power Tampa this season as his Division I eligibility had expired. Instead, thanks to Vanderbilt quarterback Diego Pavia’s lawsuit where the NCAA has granted waivers to former junior college transfers, he’s expected to regain eligibility and should be an option for the Vols in 2025.

Alberto Osuna transferred to Tennessee baseball in late January. The former North Carolina first baseman is waiting on NCAA eligibility clearance.
