Notre Dame signee P Caden Crowell snubbed by MLB Draft, ready to start his Irish career
Time to work. Notre Dame baseball saw just two of its players getting drafted by an MLB team, pitcher Rory Fox and shortstop Estevan Moreno, but others had the potential to hear their names getting called. One of them was Indiana pitcher Caden Crowell, as the 6-foot, 4-inch and 200-pound lefty thought that he might get picked, but ultimately didn't. The MLB's loss is the Irish's gain, as the top in-state pitcher and No. 159 overall prospect nationally according to will soon start his career in South Bend. Crowell went to social media to share his excitement, and while not getting picked surely was bittersweet, he'll get to work on his craft over the next three years and be eligible to get picked once again. He was dominant this past season, with a 0.25 ERA and 97 strikeouts in just 55 innings. If he's able to replicate his senior season success with Notre Dame, there is do doubt that he'll be hearing his named called during the 2028 MLB Draft.

Former Notre Dame pitcher Tore Indomenico transferring to Illinois
Committed @IlliniBaseball It's been a wild offseason for Notre Dame's baseball program after missing out on the NCAA Tournament. Like most other schools in the current college athletics landscape, the Fighting Irish have both lost and added players via the transfer portal. ND has also lost talent to the Major League Baseball Draft, including pitcher Rory Fox and shortstop Estevan Moreno. As the Irish continue to reshape their roster looking ahead to 2026, former pitcher Tore Indomenico has found a new home. The left-handed Chicago native, who did not see action this past season, has decided to continue his career at Illinois, which is somewhat closer to home for him. Indomenico, whose arsenal includes a fastball, slider and changeup, will have three years of eligibility remaining in Champaign.

Notre Dame baseball upset in ACC Tournament casting doubt on its NCAA Tournament hopes
Notre Dame baseball upset in ACC Tournament casting doubt on its NCAA Tournament hopes For the third time in four games, Notre Dame baseball fell to Boston College, this one being the toughest one to swallow. The Irish are fighting for a spot in the NCAA Tournament, but this 5-4 loss throws a wrench into the situation. Had Notre Dame prevailed, they would have gotten another solid victory and pushed the committee to include them in the field. Now, they'll have to wait and see. Starting pitcher Rory Fox gave it his all, going six innings while allowing 4 runs with nine strikeouts. Reliever Ricky Reeth pitched two clean innings, but Tobey McDonough couldn't keep the Eagles off the scoreboard in the top of the tenth. Shortstop Estevan Moreno hit a homer and scored two runs, while outfielder Jared Zimbardo had three hits. The Irish ended the regular season with a 32-21 record. Notre Dame will now have to wait and see how the rest of this week plays out, as they'll hope their season hasn't come to an end. They'll find out their fate on Sunday afternoon.

Multiple Notre Dame baseball players earn All-ACC honors
Multiple Notre Dame baseball players earn All-ACC honors Notre Dame baseball had a pretty good season this spring, as they ended the regular season with a 32-20 record, 14-16 in ACC play. While the Irish are the No. 11 seed in the conference tournament, there were multiple players that stood out this season, and on Monday they were rewarded by the ACC for their play. Catcher Carson Tinney was named to the first-team, and also got more national recognition on top of what he earned last week. He was named as a semifinalist for the Buster Posey Award, going out to the top catcher in the country. The sophomore hit 17 home runs, had 53 RBI and scored 51 runs on the year. While he was the only Notre Dame player to make the first-team, two starting pitchers made third-team All-ACC in Rory Fox and Jack Radel. Each of them played a huge part in the Irish's success this year, and hopefully that doesn't end later today. Fox led the team in ERA with a 3.34 mark, with Radel just behind him at 3.58. Freshman outfielder Bino Watters made the conference All-Freshman team, after hitting .317 with 9 home runs and 38 RBI. The future is bring for the Irish, considering how young they were this season, and the talent that returns. Hopefully this was the stepping stone they needed to make a much bigger splash in the conference and nationally next season. Congrats to all four of the Notre Dame baseball players who were honored by the ACC.
