It seems like Marshall, Menzel, Rispoli, Dalena, and Lane might start in the infield. And then Minick and maybe Wachter as two of the outfielders? If so who is the third outfielder? Curious to hear who people think will be in the starting lineup.

Yeah that would be my guess. Then I was thinking Chase Taylor or Chris Polemeni for the last OF spot with Steve Thomas or Peyton Jemison DHing.

1. Rispoli SS
2. Menzel 2B
3. Minick CF
4. Dalena 3B
5. Marshall 1B
6. Watcher LF
7. Lane C
8. Thomas/ Jemison Dan Hurley
9. Polemeni/ Taylor RF

I think it will be Thomas filling the Dan Hurley and Polemeni filling out the other corner OF spot.

Let me know what you guys would change if anything. I’m ready for the season to begin!!!

UConn recruited a great Freshman class. These guys need to play. I know they were facing the end of ASU's staff, but Detwiler and Righi looked like they deserve more ABs. Would love to see the Freshman pitchers get in too.
 
Like Penders said first few weeks guys who will play (most over course of season) will work themselves out- so if there is production or good plate appearances you can bet there will be more.

BIG EAST Pitcher of the Week
Charlie West, UConn, Jr., LHP (South Setauket, N.Y.)
West dominated the mound in 6.2 innings of work against Arizona, featuring just three hits allowed. Overall, he struck out nine batters with zero runs allowed. After maneuvering around traffic in the first two frames, the junior settled into the ballgame and went through a stretch of retiring 10 Wildcats in a row from the second inning until the fifth.

Honor Roll
Jackson Marshall, UConn, So., 1B
Marshall batted 10-for-23 with four runs scored, six RBI, two home runs and four walks earned in a 3-2 week for the Huskies.

Its still so early but I would be really interested to see if Marshall starts cracking some draft projections. Monster kid with huge power, more walks than Ks, serviceable fielding so far.

On second thought, don't think he's draft eligible. He was such a good basketball player too, Pinkerton was unstoppable with him. Great athlete

Would prefer he stay at UConn for another year. Like with basketball, as fans, we gotta stop wishing our star players away prematurely. UConn stays strong when they retain our best players.

I have mentioned this before, my wife and I saw Jackson Marshall play in a number of games in the Futures League last summer, in games against the Norwich Sea Unicorns. We were quite impressed with what we saw of Marshall in those games, so I was looking forward to him joining UConn baseball, and obviously he has continued to do quite well playing for UConn.
