UConn Baseball’s starting rotation has the potential to have what could be a great one-two punch in Tim Cate and Wills Montgomerie to go along with some great options when it comes to Sundays and midweek games.
That depth extends to the bullpen as well, as head coach Jim Penders has emphasized pitching during his time at UConn.
“That’s always been the backbone since I’ve been here as the head coach,” Penders said. “We’ve always made it a priority to get the best pitching and develop the best pitching.”
Closer Pat Ruotolo has gone on to the professional ranks and Devin Over has graduated, but there are some good pieces remaining and some freshmen coming in who could make an impact.
