Manny Lantigua bolsters the Knights’ pitching staff as the tenth portal addition this June. Track every roster move and incoming transfer as UCF retools for the future.
The UCF Knights continue to strengthen their pitching depth, as they landed in-state transfer Manny Lantigua from Florida State.
Lantigua appeared in five games for the Seminoles this past season, recording a 2.45 ERA in 5.2 innings. He becomes the Knights' 10th commit in June's transfer portal cycle halfway through the month.
The transfer portal will remain open until June 30, and the transfer portal tracker will monitor every player departure or addition.
