Oxford Ready To Win It All In 2004
Campy Roy's Oxford Red Caps are one of the prime and most potent teams in the Islandian Pro Alliance. The Red Caps have reached the Final 4 the last two years, only to lose to the eventual Pro Cup champions, the High Mesa Cowboys and Turon Typhoons. Now it's time to go all the way and win it all. In the BNN preseason poll, Oxford is the favorite to take the TU North regular season crown. But that's a tall order given the overall strength of the division. Top to bottom there are no weak sisters in it.

Roy's Red Caps have it all - excellent hitting, standout pitching and good defense. They are set at all positions and only added one new player, rookie outfielder Spunky Tolliver. The newcomer is a fine defensive outfielder, but a light hitter. Tolliver will be a defensive replacement and available to give the regular fly chasers occasional rest.

Top Pitchers: All-Star Dan Phillips (23-10 3.36), LHP Boomer Belinsky (20-13 2.41), Nicky Nicholson (16-14 2.83) and closer LHP Emerson Cannell (5-5 2.68)

Top Hitters: 3B Joe Courtney (.342 BA/47 Hr/122 RBI/127 R), CF Ike Plunkett (.314 BA/36 HR/115 RBI/119 R/20 SB), LF Mack Spencer (.272 BA/33 HR/92 RBI), C Brad Earp/.277 BA/21 HR/72 RBI), RF Dante Vander Meer (.268 BA/17 HR/60 RBI) in 100 games
