Dylan Thompson - freshman infielder / right handed pitcher

Thompson saw time on the mound and on the infield in the fall. He's been described by the staff as a competitor more than anything. He was decently effective on the mound even with lower velo than the rest of the staff. Because of the dual role, and the lack of clarity on the infield (among the likely backups), he seems more likely than some of the other freshmen to be a "game time" decision on redshirting. I think it will come down to the health of the pitching staff heading into opening day.
