The Infield

[earsky]

Other than the Cardinal starting pitchers,the infield looks to be fairly set. Not to say that there aren't Freshmen that won't push a few of these 4 guys,but they will have to push pretty hard.

Fitz,Lavey,Dunn and Wyatt will probably be in the starting lineup that first pitch in February. Fitz,Wyatt and Lavey have been thru the wars and it's as solid of a veteran group that you could hope for anchoring an infield.

Dunn is the newcomer to the infield.He was a utility guy last season,but I think he emerged in Fall ball as our new 2nd baseman. He had a very impressive Fall camp.

It goes without sayin,Logan Wyatt and Fitz will probably be pre-season All Conference selections and could garner other honors at the end.

There are prospects waiting in the wings that could push for playing time if Lavey or Dunn don't produce. It's just very hard to see them pushing past seniors.

The only other returning infielder is Ben Bianco. He will back up Wyatt at 1st more than likely.
The rest will be newcomers,true Freshmen and RS Freshmen.
Among those that may make the Spring roster and/or contribute along the way:
Alex Binelas,Jared Poland,Cameron Masterman,Andrew Benefield and Timmy Borden.
All highly regarded Freshmen that are the future of the program.
