WHAT TO WATCH FOR:

Expected Team Strength - We will return 6 guys who started our last Playoff game (7 including the DH). We only had 1 returning starter entering last season so we now have a much more veteran team. We hit .274 as a team last season and believe that we will improve on that this season. 

QUOTE FROM THE COACH:

"We are so excited to capitalize on the playing time so many young guys earned last season. I believe that we want to work and get better. I also think that this team truly enjoys being around each other and they want to achieve success."
