Other than a 2-0 record against the Miami Hurricanes, the 2018 season hasn’t been particularly good for the FIU baseball team, which sports a 22-25 record after dropping three of four games this past week.
But the Panthers’ freshman class — featuring first baseman Logan Allen, DH Jose Garcia and right fielder Adan Fernandez — gives the program hope. All three of these starters hit in the middle of the lineup, and Allen is also a starting pitcher.
This class also includes reliever Steven Casey, who leads the team in ERA (2.92); pitcher/hitter Will Saxton; pitcher Christian Santana; and outfielder Seth Cannady.
