Vanderbilt Adds Younger Brother of Previous Commitment: The Anchor
It was only a few days ago when Vanderbilt broke its silence in the NCAA baseball transfer portal, adding two players in one day.
The Commodores had been quiet until then, snagging two commitments early in the transfer window and then not receiving any commitments for more than a week.
Washington State graduate transfer Logan Johnstone broke that silence last week when he committed to the Commodores and now he’ll be joined by his younger brother.
Cal State Fullerton third baseman Carter Johnstone announced he will be following his brother to Nashville after being selected as the Big West's freshman Player of the Year and was named a second-team freshman All-American by Perfect Game.
The younger Johnstone is actually a higher rated player, according to 64 Analytics. Carter is ranked No. 273 and his brother, Logan, is ranked No. 418.
In his freshman season at Cal State Fullerton, Carter Johnstone batterd a .344/.431/.535 slash line with 14 doubles, three triples, seven home runs and 42 RBIs.

Commodores Quote of the Day
“When you are able to come together 35 strong each year and basically have 34 new best friends every year, it is a special moment that we re-create. We have a family. It’s not just 35 of the players, it’s 50. We have the staff that put so much effort in. A special thing. I’ve never been a part of something this amazing in my life. I just want to say thank you to everyone.”Dansby Swanson after his final game in 2
