Hot Pocket Preview

C - This is a strength again for the Hot Pockets. Jerome Webb and Jeffrey Fleming will platoon.

1st - Jamey Perez returns as your not so normal quick, contact oriented 1st baseman. I'm in the market for a power hitting 1st baseman.

2nd - Last year's Rule V starter Phil Ganzel will play a backup role to the new kid on the block Orber Quixote.

3rd - A trade to dump an arb eligible player brought me Jeff Figga to play some 3rd base.

SS - This is the beginning of my great wave of young SS. Oscar Miller will start and Larry Williams will backup and provide speed and defence on the bench.

OF - Our bedrock is Lee Coleman and will be joined by slugger Doug Wise and Marcus Lewis or Cyrus Rakers.

Pitching is always the weak spot of the Hot Pockets...and continues.
Benji Alfonseca, Carlos Espinoza, Al Blanco, Orlando Delgado and Miguel Mercedes will start the year as the rotation...we'll go from there.

The pen will include:
Brady Garcia, Russ Thomas, Oswaldo Felix, Jim Smart, Jerry Goodwin, Daryn Lambert, John Savage and Earle Magadan

The Hot Pockets will yet again struggle to get into contention with a young bunch of hooligans whilst signing a bunch of IFAs...building for Season 15!
