The Rally: Which player does Florida need to step up most in 2013?
By ADAM PINCUS | Feb. 11, 2013Josh: The Gators lost the vast majority of their power to graduation and the draft. They don’t need to completely replace Mike Zunino, Preston Tucker and Nolan Fontana, but someone still has to step up and pick up some of the slack. That is why the most important player on the Florida baseball roster this season is sophomore catcher Taylor Gushue. The lineup won’t be as power-reliant. Instead, UF will increase its focus on small ball. Still, the Gators will rely on Gushue’s raw power to give them some semblance of balance in a lineup that lacks home-run ability at several positions. Even though he hit just .206 as a freshman, Gushue showed his potential as a middle-of-the-order force in flashes early last year.
