Michigan State baseball commit signs with Los Angels Angels following 2025 MLB Draft
Michigan State baseball landed a big time commitment from Luke LaCourse, a Bay City (MI) native, in 2023 - expecting the two way services of one of the state's best players. Unfortunately, that wont come to fruition for MSU. LaCourse was selected in the sixth round of the 2025 MLB Draft by the Los Angeles Angels out of Bay City Western High School. Now, he has officially inked his deal with the Angels, getting a deal above slot value. The Angels deal with LaCourse comes in at around $515,000, over one-hundred thousand above the slot value at $393,700. A deal that much over slot value was enough to pry LaCourse away from East Lansing and joining Michigan State and an NIL deal.

Michigan State baseball commit drafted in sixth round by Los Angeles Angels
A local product and Michigan State baseball commit has gotten drafted in the 2025 MLB Draft. Logan LaCourse, a Bay City (MI) native, was selected with the No. 169 overall pick in the 6th round of the MLB draft by the Los Angeles Angels. He has been committed to Michigan State since late 2023. A product of Bay City Western High School, LaCourse was named Michigan's Mr. Baseball and a first-team all-state player in 2025 as a 6-foot-4, 205 pound right handed pitcher. It is unclear if LaCourse is going to sign with the Angels or forgo the draft this time around and sign to play with Michigan State next season. Surely, a competitive NIL offer will be on the table to compete with a minor league baseball contract.
