Men UConn Baseball 2025

I am wondering if Gabe Van Emon is injured and unable to play in games. He has not gotten any time on the mound in games of late.
After watching yesterday you can see why we haven't seen him much.
 


Next scheduled home game is versus Hofstra on Wednesday @ 3:05.


The high temperature in Storrs tomorrow is supposed to be around 40 degrees. Not exactly baseball weather.

Certainly true that Van Emon has not done well at all this season. However, he had a similar season last year to what Cooke had, a bad stretch and a good stretch. Just hoping the good stretch for him takes over again at some point in this season, but it certainly has not happened yet.

Shpur and Lane have really come on the last few weeks. Garbo's injury has affected him to the point where the future is now with Lane. Looks like Tirado is being redshirted.

Padilla has more errors this year than I can remember the last few years combined. Pitching wise, we don't have the depth for a regional at this point. Hopefully enough for the Big East tournament. Let's hope someone amongst Abedessa, Hutchinson, Van Emon and one more can get it together toward the business end of the Big East season the way Finn has turned it around. If we can get one or more of those guys rolling, I like our chances down the stretch and the BET.

Cooke's underlying numbers and k:bb ratio indicate that better times could be ahead for him.

The issue now is that even to win the BET, we almost certainly need to win it in 3 games. If it takes 5, no way we have the pitching to do that.
 
Good read by Dom:



-> McCarver, who died two years ago, didn’t last 22 years as a major league catcher, or become the preferred backstop for Bob Gibson and Steve Carlton, by worrying about bumps, bruises or bad breaks. He then warmed our living rooms with all his stories and ideals over decades as a broadcaster, a baseball lifer unforgettable for his grit and joie de vivre.

And it lives on this spring as his grandson completes his college baseball career at UConn, and Tim McCarver would’ve certainly drawled a few memorable lines after watching Beau race around the bases for an inside-the-park home run Tuesday night at Dunkin’ Park, an igniting moment in the Huskies’ 12-2 victory over UMass.<-

-> On a night former coach Andy Baylock was honored with the UConn Club’s rarely-presented Crystal Award for his 60-plus years of contribution to the university’s athletic programs, the Huskies won their ninth in a row. After a brutal start to the season on the long February and March road trips against top-level competition, and despite a slew of injuries, the Huskies have put their season back together up north and played their way back into Big East and NCAA Tournament contention. <-

Also in this article, it says that Tyler Minick did not play in recent games due to a wrist injury.
 
Minick looks to be on pace to become one of our highest drafted players ever next year if he continues this trajectory

He needs to work on his fielding otherwise his draft stock will take a big hit.
