Tigers are going to be a very good team this year. This opening series did not work out and let's take a quick look at what we lost from last years ACC champions:
Eli White- Gone. Played hurt last year and had arm surgery after season. He had great range and made some outstanding plays. Led team with a ton of stolen bases. His first year in pro ball was very successful as he was named team mvp on his pro team. Made academic honor roll in ACC.
Pender- was ill for the opening series.
Beer- well Beer is here and will continue to SERVE.. WELL BEER.
Oakey- Gone...was best catcher in ACC. Great arm and defense. Hit a ton of HR's and RBIs. He had a good year in pro ball after struggling in the Pioneer League. He is not easily replaced. He will be missed this year greatly as he was an all around player.
Wilson- Gone. He had a very good year at 2 base defensively with timely HR's(7) and sac flies and bunts. Hit 2 home runs against the Coots in one game as we won the series. His first year in pro ball he hit .318 and had OPS around 880. Played primarily at 3 base but played all positions except P and C. Had excellent defensive year.
Williams- hurt....will be out for a while. He is expected to be a leader this year.
COACH LEE WILL GET THE JOB DONE. THE REPLACEMENTS FOR THESE GUYS WILL GET THE JOB DONE
