As the Miami Hurricanes baseball team prepares to kick off its new season, it's clear that there are a lot of exciting changes happening within the program. For one, three key pitchers - Ashton Crowther, Myles Caba, and Brian Walters - are expected to return from injury, bringing with them valuable experience and skills.

Walters, in particular, has had a tough road to recovery after undergoing Tommy John surgery. However, he's been fortunate to have the support of his teammates and brother, Andrew Walters, who is an All-American closer at Miami. According to Walters, his recovery was challenging, but his brother and others helped him through.

The return of these pitchers is likely to be a major boost for the Hurricanes, especially considering that they are now focusing more on advanced scouting and player development. In fact, head coach J.D. Arteaga has made it clear that one of his main priorities is to develop the program's pitchers, and he's been working closely with them to achieve this goal.

Under Arteaga's guidance, the team is also introducing more analytics into their practices, which will help them make data-driven decisions on the field. This marks a significant change from previous years, when the team relied more heavily on traditional coaching methods.

For the pitchers, having their former pitching coach take over the program is an added bonus. 'It's a special relationship,' said pitcher Brian Walters. 'I feel like it's even cooler now that he's the head coach.'

Arteaga has also changed the way the program runs, introducing more hands-off approach during practices and allowing assistant coaches to take more of the reins with their position groups. This change is noticeable, according to Gonzalez, who said that Arteaga's style differs from DiMare's in that he's less involved during practices.

Despite these changes, it's clear that the Hurricanes are still focused on one thing - winning baseball. 'It's the same program, it's still baseball,' Arteaga said.

Overall, the return of these key pitchers and the introduction of more analytics into the program are likely to make a big impact on the team's performance this season. With their new head coach at the helm, the Hurricanes are looking poised for success in the coming years.
