Coach LaBranche: “Brendan had a good fall and very strong pre season. He has been moved to first base and has taken to that role. He also has the ability to play other positions in the field, so we see him as a utility guy, very hard working kid who has improved a lot since fall. Defensively, he has the ability to give a starter a day off if we have injuries or to plug a whole in the infield.”
