TEAM STRENGTHS
Friendly takes advantage of overall team speed in their games with a small ball style of play.  Putting pressure on defenses, handling the bat to move runners and bunt players to advance are the strengths that are the core of the team.    

QUESTION MARK
Friendly will be thin on the pitching mound and looking for a few players to step up on the team to help them this season.  The ability to get a couple of pitchers to solidify their rotation will be a tremendous help to them. 

WILDCARD
Raekwan Brown could be the player that takes the next step forward for the program.  Brown shows a lot of athletic ability for the team but is very inexperienced and after having another year under his belt could be in line to make a jump for Friendly.   

OVERALL
Pitching could be the main way that Friendly can take the next step to get over the .500 win percentage.  Getting some more experience could be the ticket the team needs to make a step forward.
