Re: Today's starting lineup
VERY interesting. THREE freshmen starting, including one batting in the 2-hole and one on the mound.
Keegan catching as some here had expected. But I didn't expect to see Kolwyck at first base. He has played some outfield for us; I could have foreseen Tate in the outfield and Jones on first.

Re: Today's starting lineup
just a scrimmage, so not a lot of tea leaves to read yet. no Carter Young, maybe not ready yet, and no Bulger, who although didn't catch last year, was one of the best HS catchers his senior year. It looks like the hype on Holton might be for real, with chance to be a possible weekend starter

UNC puts runners on first and second with one out in the bottom of the ninth, but the Tar Heels can’t scratch across a run and fall 8-5 to Vanderbilt.
Great evening at the Bosh and surely a valuable experience for both teams heading into the spring.

Re: Today's starting lineup
I got to see the first 4 innings and Bolton looked very good for opening game on road. We won 8-5 but made 3:errors - don't know who or why. We looked loose and confident after 1st inning struggles.

Re: Today's starting lineup
I know this is just the first practice game but it certainly seems to be a lineup built around speed.

Don't forget Gordon sitting in the 9 hole. That's four burners in a row.

Re: Today's starting lineup
I expect Carter Young to bat in the top 1/3 of the line-up by the time Spring rolls around. I've heard no updates regarding last year's shoulder injury, but am somewhat surprised he isn't already healed.
I'm also a little disappointed that Spencer won't be pitching any this year. It was my understanding at the beginning of his career that his best shot in the Majors was as a pitcher. Hopefully his arm (wasn't it Tommy John?) will recover fully so that he can get on the mound at some point in the future.
