Cook was a two way player this summer, I saw he had a few ABs. Velocity is a tricky thing and without proper arm maintenance it can be tough to maintain it throughout an entire 50 game season.

Keep an eye out for some of DIIIs best talent this year coming from the NESCAC
1. Fred Shepard (Amherst) LHP - 89-92 in outing I saw this summer with very impressive slider. Strong season in the cape. Lone dIII player to be allowed to stay through the summer. started championship game and did it in impressive fashion, sitting allowing only 2 hits through 5 innings and 1 earned run.
2. Kevin Gilchrist (Tufts) LHP - Another LHP from the North East, building off of a strong previous season look for him to emerge once again. Velocity last year ranged from 82-85
3. Oliver Van Zant (Bowdoin) RHP - Not really sure what his role was last season, not pitching as much as one would expect, swung the bat this summer in the NECBL. Keep your eyes open.
4. Bob Cook (Amherst) RHP/1B - Played the summer in NECBL, went 0-4 with high era but showed some strong points. Defending NESCAC player of the year, RHP peak velocity in game I saw this summer was 84 but showed poise on the mound. Look for him to be a presence in the Amherst lineup as well.
