    The Catamounts will have several players drafted, though many of them might be better values as senior signs. Nick Liles entered the year with the biggest reputation after hitting .292 with 14 stolen bases in the Cape Cod League last summer. As he did on the Cape, Liles showed gap power and above-average speed this spring while lacking a feel for defense. He is athletic and can play second base, shortstop in a pinch, third base or the outfield.
