I would have thought the opposite (schools can always use arms). You got me curious so I looked at UCONN roster: 6 of each. (Being a stats teacher, though I realize a sample of one is not sufficient....)

Keep in mind that there are a variety of reasons a kid is redshirted. Some are medical. I don't think a roster is going to distinguish between a medical redshirt and a redshirt for "roster management" reasons. With pitchers injured more than position players, could be part of what you see on UConn.
