Message: [QUOTE="dbmill, post: 4742444, member: 2504"] I quite like TC Simmons. I'm inclined to think if he is healthy that his offense would also be productive, and that he would certainly get the first call in getting playing time in CF. But if he doesn't hit, there will be other players looking to get playing time. I've mentioned before that I watched Drew Kron play summer ball in Norwich. Love his defense in CF, has good speed, and he seems to have good base running instincts. If his bat and offense is at all productive, he could end up being quite a player at UConn. I saw Shpur play a few games with the Mystic Schooners, but I have to say he didn't make an impression on me, positive or negative. We'll have to see how he performs in fall ball. UConn has 26 pitchers on the fall ball roster, plus a couple more freshmen position players (Oates and Minick) who are also marked off as pitchers on the roster. Plenty of arms for the UConn coaches to look at this fall, that is for sure. Seems to me at the beginning of fall ball it is very difficult to predict who will end up being starters, especially since no one clearly established themselves in that role last season. I would think Garrett Coe is very likely to be effective whether he ends up being a starter, or a big guy out of the bullpen. It may be the question of whether he starts depends on how other potential starters perform, but I certainly expect Coe to get plenty of time on the mound, whether he ends up starting or coming out of the bullpen.
