Anyone have any idea on what the opening day lineup is?


This is all I could find.

Bianco announced that Golsan and Feigl have been elected team captains.

Pitching
“Friday we’ll start off with Ryan Rolison on the mound for us,” Bianco said. “Saturday Brady Feigl, and Sunday James McArthur. And it’s no secret that Dallas Woolfolk will be our closer.”

Outfield
Thomas Dillard will start in left field.
Senior Will Golsan will move to center field.
Junior Ryan Olenek, who played center field for the Rebels in 2017, will move to right field

Infield
At third base, it looks as if freshmen Tim Elko and Tyler Keenan will split time, at least initially.
Grae Kessinger returns at shortstop for the Rebels after starting 53 games there last season.
As for second baseman, Bianco was non-committal as to who the opening day starter would be, suggesting either Jacob Adams or Anthony Servideo would be there on opening day
Junior returner Nick Fortes will be the first baseman on Friday when the season begins, with sophomore Cole Zabowski also sharing time at first
Sophomore Cooper Johnson, who was charged with only two errors in 391 attempts last year, will start behind the plate for Ole Miss.

DH
Senior Tim Rowe (.405 slugging) and junior Chase Cockrell will provide a right-handed, left-handed combination with a lot of power.

Lineup
Bianco didn’t offer too much insight into the batting order for opening day, but he did discuss the leadoff hitter.
“Leadoff is the tough one.I think there’s a good chance that one of those second basemen, maybe Servideo or Adams leads off opening day, but we’ll have to play with it,” he said. “Some of those other guys that run well probably aren’t your prototypical leadoff guys, like Olenek and Golsan. They’re good hitters, but I think Servideo and Adams did that for us, and I think they’re ready for that position.”
