Agreed, he appears to be the type to absolutely shine in a bullpen setting. The biggest question is will he be able to be the guy come conference play

I think Gravin wants to stay at 3rd. 1st is an option instead of ss though.

He does, I got curious and DM'ed him one day asking. He played shortstop in high school, but he'd rather play third base.

Brauny has also mentioned that Gavin is willing to do what's best for the team. It sounds like Hacopian will want to stay at SS if at all possible, so if nobody steps up as 1st it may be easier to convince Gavin to move

It's a nickname not a misspelling.

During his freshman year, there was rarely an away game where one of the commentators didn't screw up trying to say Gavin Grahovac and accidently called him Gravin.

So the players get to pick where they play. It's not Earley's choice on what's best for the team?

I never he wouldn't move. He's a great third baseman and has consistently done what's been asked if him. Why shouldn't his preferences at least be taken into account?

After the the runs allowed from errors or should be errors at third this year, I want good hands on the hot corner.

I don't think Gavin is bad at 3rd, but Henseler actually played a lot better according to statistics.

Henseler in 2025 - 0.942 fielding pct
Gavin in 2024 - 0.917 fielding pct

It just seemed Henseler's misses came at inopportune times.

FYI - Hacopian this Summer:
1B - 13 games, 1 error/85 chances, .988 Fldg %
3B - 17 games, 3 errors/29 chances, .897 Fldg %
SS - 2 games, 0 errors/4 chances, 1.0 Fldg %

Wow this is kind of eye opening. Felt to me that GG was much better at 3rd than Wyatt. Would a lack of range factor into this (re Wyatt)?

Going off memory Gavin wasn't always the best fielder but has a plus arm and made some spectacular throws at times.

With his only real experience being as a true freshman, I think it's reasonable to expect improvement with repetition and Pennington coaching him up.

Could how good Ali was at SS in 2024 be the reason we all have the impression GG was a better fielder than WH?

What did you see from Farr to put him over Royo? I think Farr has a lot of work to do with the glove and the bat.

Wasn't his arm one of his weaker tools? Feel like I remember him bouncing a lot more throws than you want from your 3B.

I have Royo at 2B and Farr DHing. Agree Royo looked better with the glove last year. I think both of those guys are the most vulnerable to the newcomers.
