He and Martin would make a loaded 1-2 in the lineup. A lot of runners on base for Bleday and Scott.

Re: Isaiah Thomas (No, not that one), POY, AOY in Florida
That’s quite a lofty goal.....if he can break into next year’s starting lineup, he’ll have to beat out Martin, DeMarco or Bleday, unless Martin moves to an infielder position.admin wrote:His goals, "Start my freshman year and get drafted my junior year."

I was thinking it would be Martin. He's the best athlete on the team and Ray was shaky at 3B, so IMO, he has a long way to go to put him at short.BWestbrook wrote:Harrison will be the SS

He made some incredible plays in the super region. We’re going to have to adjust no matter who plays SS because Conner was the best defensive shortstop to ever play at VU.geeznotagain wrote:This would not give me a warm fuzzy.BWestbrook wrote:Harrison will be the SS

I read or heard somewhere that it will be Austin Martin at SS. I tried to find the source for that info, but no luck so far. But you are correct, no matter who it is, they will not be as good as Conner has been.BWestbrook wrote:He made some incredible plays in the super region.
