That includes one of their most recent signees in infielder Jeremy Sagun from Montville. Conn.
The 5-foot-11, 175-pound right-handed hitter is entering his second season with the Mariners and will be taking the field for his senior campaign after putting up decent numbers in in the abbreviated NCAA Division III New England Collegiate Conference last spring.
Sagun saw action in all eight games Mitchell took the field for before the pandemic shut things down in early March, making 33 plate appearances and hitting .310 to go along with four runs scored and five runs batted in. He also hit a pair of doubles and a triple, capping the campaign with a .803 on-base percentage plus slugging percentage (OPS).
Interestingly enough, Sagun also brings NCAA Division I baseball experience to the Miller Express.
He suited up the previous two seasons for the Central Connecticut State University Blue Devils, who play in the Division I Northeast Conference.
As a junior, Sagun saw action in 12 games and hit .125 with a pair of RBI and a .347 OPS; in his sophomore campaign Sagun played 35 games, hit .202, knocked in eight runs and scored nine himself while putting together a .476 OPS. He also added four stolen bases to his offensive totals.
Sagun is the second Mitchell College veteran to sign with the Millers this season, joining Express veteran pitcher Jeff Nicolosi. Miller Express head coach Eric Marriott is also a Mitchell alum, with five players from the school having played for Moose Jaw last season.
The NECC has yet to post their 2020-21 schedule, but the Miller Express will open their WCBL campaign on May 28 when they host the Medicine Hat Mavericks at Ross Wells Park.
