QUEENS, N.Y. – St. John's baseball standout Louis Marinaro signed a contract with the Texas Rangers organization on Tuesday.
Marinaro was a standout left-hand reliever for the Red Storm, who made 59 appearances for three seasons from 2023-25. The Croton-on-Hudson, N.Y., native posted a career 4.72 ERA and was a 2024 All-BIG EAST Second Team selection.
The pitcher has performed strongly in the Cape Code Baseball League, one of the nation's top summer leagues for the Bourne Braves making three appearances logging a 3.38 ERA and seven strikeouts over 5.1 innings of work.
During his junior campaign, Marinaro was a Preseason All-BIG EAST selection and pitched in 17 games, making one start logging 38 strikeouts over 31 innings pitched.
