Message: [QUOTE="dbmill, post: 3095645, member: 2504"] UConn is currently scheduled to play its first midweek New England game tomorrow. At this point, UConn has 34 games left in its regular season schedule. Twelve of those games (three AAC conference series and the out of conference series against Sam Houston State) will require airplane flights where about 27 or 28 players travel on the trip, with the rest of the players not traveling stay behind in Storrs. However, for the 22 games that are scheduled for either home or at nearby New England schools, a different dynamic can now be added. Players who have not normally traveled with the team could now have the opportunity to play in these games. It’s possible that we might see someone like Jake Sanderson, Andy Hague, or Ben Maycock making an appearance in a game. It’s more of a chance that one of the non traveling pitchers might make an appearance in a game that isn’t close. I’m looking forward to possibly seeing someone like Jake Sanderson in a non conference game to see what they can do. Of course, it is usually the practice that a few of the pitchers on the roster (usually freshmen) will end up being redshirted and not play at all, which was the case for Caleb Wurster and Angus Mayock last season.
