The biggest questions will be based on Gridley staying or leaving, what pitchers return from injury, and how many immediate impact newcomers we will have.
If Gridley leaves, our offense takes a major hit unless Alexander flips a switch this summer...bc he is your starting shortstop if Gridley leaves. Which likely puts Bragg at 3B. Can Vansau play 1B? He looks like a first baseman to me.
I actually expect Alexander to improve over summer in the Cape. I think Bragg could improve a lot too if he sticks around. But I'm most excited about another step forward for Stovall, Vansau, and Macnamee.
If Mangum will focus 100% on being a selective hitter btwn now & next year, we will actually have a solid core of hitters in Mangum, Stovall, Vansau, and Macnamee. Then it's all up to adding some power somewhere, and improvement from LA, Bragg, & Skelton. Throw a Gridley surprise in there and we're in business.
I expect pitching to be much improved. Interested to see if Self becomes a starter or just a badass closer.
Does anybody know where we will generate power from next season? Any big newcomers? Is the Itawamba guy legit?
