Is Minick in CF working out? Seems to be having issues out there

 

[CtBaseball]

As a former all-area, bat-first high school outfielder who made my fair share of errors, I’ll be the first to say, OF is a lot harder than it looks. Some people have it, others don’t. Not sure Minick is built for the OF.

Huge ouch! The whole game fit on one depressing page. Good thing BB & hockey won last night to buffer the pain.

Yup, depressing to follow for sure, especially with it on during parts of those other UConn sports games that you mentioned.

 

[FLHOOKCFAN1]

Fustrating team these last 2 years. It seems like they have the talent to make a deep run again this year. But just not able to get it done on the field. Seems like they are still trying to get 3rd base and the OF nailed down. Feels like Minick moving back to 3rd where he is a proven good denender could be a good move. You could then have Tayler, Watcher, and Righi in the OF. May still be a problem in CF. But the offense feels like it would firm up. (Assuming scouts suggested the Minick move?) Really hope they can win out this weekend and enter into the Xavier series with a winning record.
