Sam Favieri is now listed on the Mystic Schooners roster. By the way, the Schooners will be playing their home games at Dodd Stadium in Norwich this summer.
New London Day reports that five new players have just joined the Mystic Schooners of the NECBL, including Kevin Ferrer. The Schooners online roster still lists UConn as Ferrrer's school.
Heading up to the Cape this weekend. Any idea when our guys will be activated?
I know the team USA Collegiate National Team is starting soon which will open a handful of cape league roster spots so perhaps those spots will be filled with HuskiesInteresting, UConn players have been joining various summer league teams since the last game against Stanford, and have been getting playing time. However, while several UConn players are listed in the Player Search listing in the Cape Cod League, from what I can tell no UConn players are currently listed on the active summer rosters of any Cape Cod team. Guessing that once UConn players start reporting to their Cape teams, they will first be activated and then put on the active roster.
According to the Cape Cod League transactions page, both Bryan Padilla and Jack Sullivan have joined the Wareham Gatemen today
Alejandro pitched a fair amount of innings early on this season for UConn before the coaching staff pretty much stopped using him. From this early usage, it would seem the UConn coaching staff sees some talent in him, even if he didn't produce the results they were looking for. Because of this, it makes me particularly interested to see how Alejandro performs this summer with the Mystic Schooners.
Considering the Schooners are now using Dodd Stadium in Norwich as their home field, I'm hoping that Alejandro will appear in some of the Schooners games that I hope to go to over the summer season.
Same problem as McBride. After a decent start, he started walking way too many. The one thing the coaching staff didn’t have patience with. He had good stuff. Hopefully he can find the strike zone again.
Despite his entrance into the portal, he’s still referred to as being with UConn as UConn Baseball also liked the tweet which is interesting. Also, it’s Kevin, not Kyle guys
Yes, Alejandro had control problems, as did McBride. However, the coaching staff gave a lot more innings to Alejandro early on in the season then they did with McBride. Safe to say that the coaching staff showed some game confidence in Alejandro that they never really showed with McBride this season. Of course, McBride also got hurt in a game in the middle of the season, and never pitched again in a game.
Huh? McBride was unacceptably wild in 2021 and came out the same way in 2022. Alejandro pitched effectively for a few appearances before his control started to decline.
Is McBride the player who nuked Penders on social media?McBride never got regular pitching time on the mound due to his wildness during his time at UConn, no problem with that even with his potential. Alejandro got fairly regular pitching time through March, until the April game disasters against St. John's and UMass pretty much did him in for the season. But before those games Alejandro was doing okay and looked like he had a chance of breaking through to possibly a bigger pitching role before he lost the confidence of the coaching staff for this season.
Alejandro started to give up bombs and then his control became shaky. I wondered if he was injured at any point.McBride never got regular pitching time on the mound due to his wildness during his time at UConn, no problem with that even with his potential.

Unless I missed something I think you are thinking of Will Lucas. In which case, my metaphor of choice would be closer to self-immolated, considering he’s not playing anywhere while Penders on the other hand got to a Super Regional and just got a huge raise.Is McBride the player who nuked Penders on social media?
