Everything went to plan for Kentucky this weekend in Greensboro — except for one bad injury break. The Bat Cats must move forward without star shortstop Tyler Bell for an unknown period of time. That unknown period could very well be weeks.
The status of Bell’s shoulder injury is currently unknown. Kentucky had to play two full games without the sophomore in the lineup this weekend. Some more will likely be needed. How does UK go about replacing their best player in the lineup? We saw some of the team approach in the first weekend.
Ahead of the first four-game week of the season, KSR’s Bases Loaded is taking a look at what the domino effect of losing Tyler Bell is, who replaces him in the field, who replaces him in the lineup, and how this affects the pitching staff.
