NE Insider: The Recruiting Angle with Brian Doherty
This time of year seems to be a very nerve racking time for unsigned seniors and underclassmen looking to get on coaches radar. No need to panic, it's early in the spring and once it warms up, the coaches will be out to see your game. Relaxing and enjoying the spring season is important, so keep in mind, control the controllable things and work on your game.
The following weekly article will be a feature on a player who has yet to break onto the scene, but certainly has the ability to play and/or pitch at the college level.
Today we are going to take a look at Brian Doherty, a 2016 MIF from Billerica Memorial, Massachusetts.
MIF Breakdown
College coaches differ on what type of middle infielders they want to sign. I prefer an offensive second baseman as oppose to a defender at second. All of us want the SS that can really pick it and swing the bat. I truly believe the more offensive your second baseman is the more likely you are to be a winning team. Brian Doherty projects as a second baseman in college, he has offensive tools and he can run. We will see how it plays out, he is more than likely getting overlooked, whereas, he should be getting some love.
