Any word on what the rotation looks to be this year? Looking forward to seeing the Vols on the diamond soon

Joey “Swaggy J” Aguilar will be the ace,
George “GMac” MacIntyre should be the Saturday guy
And
Faizon “Let’s go” Brandon will likely take the third spot as a true freshman

Don’t sleep on the depth that Appenzeller and Baiotto provide as well. I know Krenzel could likely step in as well.

I wonder if they'll try to stretch out Appenzeller and maybe someone else as the season goes along so as to have that 5th starter possibility after Arvidson (for the postseason). On one hand, you could do that with Appenzeller as a midweek starter, but on the other, he might be more valuable as a weekend bullpen arm. As a freshman, I'm sure he'll get better as the season goes along...so he'll likely be a better pitcher in May/June than in March.

They scrimmaged Friday, Sat, and today (Sunday). I think all were shortened and only went a few innings due to the weather.

Anyone able to access the articles from Eric Cain? Usually a pretty good tell of who the opening day lineup will be. Either starters all on one team or starting IF on one side and starting OF on the other

As I read on a couple of sites (RTI and VQ),
On Friday, Marin played SS and Chris Newstrom played 2B. Then on Sat, Antigua replaced Newstrom at 2B and Newstrom moved to LF. Marin was at SS all 3 games. Interestingly, Antigua didn’t play today after collecting 4 hits the first 2 days.
1B. Clark
C. Lawless
3B Ford
RF Chapman
CF Abernathy
LF/DH Brown

I would add that Blake Grimmer apparently hasn’t participated in any scrimmages so far this Spring due to back soreness.

Would think he’s probably in the DH spot to start the season when healthy. Lineup looks pretty set other than the Antigua/newstrom battle still going on. Will be interesting to see how much they want Brown to pitch and in what situations
