WHAT TO EXPECT
"The foundation is there for DeVries, we'll be looking for him to be more assertive at the plate and to feed off his solid defensive ability, taking his actions to another level. The 2019 grad should crack the next round of rankings if he comes out with the confidence that he should have and let's it fly. Looking forward to seeing him again on Feb. 11th. "
