He is a threat from every angle as he also stole 10 bases and finished 2000 with a .978 fielding percentage. We look for Blake to come into his own. Vince Volpe will step out from a reserve role the last two seasons and be the outfield general, in center field, while helping out redshirt freshman Mark Calkins in left. Vince has done an outstanding job for us in center field. Mark will probably be our starter in left field this season, and maybe even be our leadoff hitter.
Speed is the name of the game in the outfield as the starters posses the ability.
The bench also ads depth as Ryan Donley, Carlton Bragg, Brian Bucciarelli, and Joe Kemp all will be ready to contribute. With all of the talent on the squad, Morgan has a great deal to play with because of the versatility of his players. We have several options with our lineup due to the versatility. Eric Blakeley and Brad DeStefano can both play the outfield. John Bestler can play both shortstop and second base, as can Blakeley.
