At Miami
Michael Sanders red-shirted in the 2005 season and will red-shirt this season to rehabilitate a shoulder injury … is one of Miami’s first successful ventures into the state of Georgia … a hard-working right-handed pitcher with good size … deceptive delivery that keeps hitters off balance … very competitive pitcher that attacks hitters.
