Per Gino: 8 pitchers are battling for the four rotation spots. He didn’t name them. He had previously called out Rosario, Mederos, McFarlane, and Smith as hard throwers.

Del, Toral, and Wanger have been named preseason All Americans https://miamihurricanes.com/news/2020/12/22/del-castillo-headlines-preseason-all-america-trio/

Nothing earth shattering but does have some quotes from Gino https://www.collegebaseball.info/post/despite-losing-weekend-rotation-miami-poised-to-vie-at-top-of-acc

Definitely a “projectable” frame for the scouts.

Talk about our current roster with local writer Walter Villa at around the 6:00 mark. Discussion of moving Morales to 3B because of how good Pitelli has been is interesting. https://d1baseball.com/podcasts/the-d1baseball-podcast-season-7-episode-7/

For pre-draft purposes he’d probably like the chance to argue to scouts that he is though. Catcher that can hit is much more valuable than a maybe corner OF who can hit.

Del wouldn’t be okay with it for exactly that reason. DH all year would likely hurt his draft stock.

That answers our Gil question. Having wanted them to move him to midweek slot last year, I unsurprisingly agree with them about Federman being better as a starter.

3 more cuts at the end of fall ball. I’m not as familiar with the roster as I would normally be at this point but it appears the cuts are Giuseppe Ferraro, Nate Thomas, and Mykanthony Valdez.

It looks like Alex Ruiz is gone. He’s no longer listed on the roster leaving us with 38 players.

Roster is up: https://miamihurricanes.com/sports/baseball/roster/ I count 39 players total, including 17 returning players, 14 new freshman, 6 JUCO transfers, and 2 Grad transfers. Ortiz and Sagaro didn’t make it to campus along with Carlos Rodriguez. I may be forgetting, but I think Christian...

PG has switched Carlos Rodriguez to uncommitted. He may be one of the players deciding to go the JUCO route. Hopefully we get a roster as early as Monday with the semester starting.

On the JUCO transfer front, Adam Frank is playing for the Wisconsin Woodchucks in the Northwoods League with his school listed as the University of Miami. Seems like a decent indication he’s still coming. I don’t see any of our other players or potential players on summer ball rosters. Florida...

Still taking a wait and see approach on Gino personally. The recruiting has been great, but the in-game decision making left a lot to be desired (especially against Florida).

Michael Rosario, Jordan Dubberly, Adam Frank, Anthony Arguelles, and Erick Orbeta were pre-COVID. PG currently has Smith, Rosario, and Dubberly listed as committed, but I’m not sure whether the others were in their listed in their system earlier or not.

Now 43 known roster options with BVB, Keysor, Tuero, and Paige gone. If only MKlein13 were still here for the Paige news.

Seems about right. Depending on what else shapes up in the bullpen, Federman might be option to compete for a spot at the backend of the weekend rotation given the decent success he had as a freshman in the midweek role. We have a lot pieces and JD’s track record gives me confidence it will get...

Didn’t know about Moore. Make it 46 players. We’ve started the Fall with 37 players before so a number closer to 40 wouldn’t shock me with the relaxed limits. If you’re right about the JUCOs, natural attrition in the recruiting class probably gets us most of the rest of the way.
