Apparent JUCO transfer infielder to add to the roster logjam
I'm probably missing it, but where in the infield is he expected to play?

A different tweet (they were so excited they tweeted about his transfer on three separate occasions) said 3B.I'm probably missing it, but where in the infield is he expected to play?
Looking at his very limited Perfect Game page, it listed him as an OF. Could also see him compete there if that was his HS position. Seems like a good depth pickup with a guy that can play multiple positions if nothing else.Maybe he gets some DH time and move Gates to the bullpen full time like they originally wanted to? And then gets some 3B play with Gil at DH? Just a thought.
LOL that's exactly who I was hoping he'd push. WELPLooks like Lauck played mostly SS his first year before moving to 3B from the end of that season on. He had a Zamora-like 18 errors both seasons.

some coaching news, it looks like we'll have a new volunteer assistant in 2020. Durkac gets a full-time spot at USF (for those who aren't familiar with the rules, the NCAA limits teams to 2 assistant coaches + 1 volunteer coach).

Perfect Game updated their class rankings to remove the guys who got drafted & signed.

Usual caveat that PG doesnt include Juco transfers in their rankings, and their methodology skews things in favor of larger class sizes, but we finish with the #6 class and the #4 class in terms of average player ranking (behind only Vandy, LSU, and UCLA). I noticed FSU had a very disappointing class as is and then lost all 3 drafted players in it.
D1 Baseball and Baseball America will put out their final rankings in the Fall, and I'm guessing Miami's class will be somewhere in the 5-8 range. That would make 3 straight top-10 classes according to D1 and BA. Great job of stacking talent by JD and DiMare
which I think is a big miss in how they do it, don't you?
JUCO transfers can have a massive impact, especially when it's a quality add to the pitching staff. that has serious effect.
agreed?
