2019 OUTLOOK
"This a team with a blend of younger and older talent.  Most of the pitching is on the younger side so if they can throw strikes and we pick it up behind them, they could be a pretty good team by mid-season.  Team speed is decent.  Hitters will have to develop and we have young catching." Head Coach Mike Elsbecker
