Message: [QUOTE="dbmill, post: 3926411, member: 2504"] Ben Maycock and Chris Winkel are getting playing time because of all the injuries, otherwise Maycock would have been on the bench and that would have been a possible spot for Winkel as well. However, they both got the opportunity to play today, and they took advantage of it. As I have noted in the past, if you get a chance to play and you do something with it, Penders is likely going to give you more opportunities. After today's performance, it would not surprise me if Maycock gets another shot at D.H. against UMass this weekend as long as they throw right handers. I'm guessing Langer would get D,H. time against any left handers UMass uses. One thing Penders has not done all that much in the past is use a platoon system at any position, but one could be emerging with those two until guys like Ferrer and/or Simmons and even Devenney are healthy again and able to get back into the lineup. The odd thing is, in the past I've always been intrigued by Maycock's power/speed potential, primarily due to the interesting stats he has produced in summer ball over the years. With Maycock's slow start this season, I had lost the intrigue in him so to speak, but we'll see what he can do this weekend assuming he gets more playing time. On a side note, Andy Hague got a chance to play a couple games against Rhode Island, and did not produce. Back to the bench he goes. If he had produced a bit, it is possible he may have played against BC, instead of Maycock. [/QUOTE]
