With spring out of the way, how are we heading into the season?

Well, a lot happened. A lot of stuff that I wasn't expecting.

A bunch of guys that had a shot to make the roster were designated for assignment instead.

Fran Mullins, Burt Brown, Brian Harper, Mark Calvert, Hal McRae, Terry Harper, and Eddie Vargas.

Sent to Phoenix:

Colin Ward, Randy Morse, Bill Laskey, Steve Nicosia

We are going into the season like this:

Rotation

Dennis Eckersley
Bruce Ruffin
Terry Mulholland
Eric King
Mark Grant

Bullpen

Scott Garrelts (Closer)
Jeff Robinson
Mark Davis
Pat Perry
Willie Fraser
Frank Williams

(Surprised about Fraser. He was a starting pitcher in A ball last year.)

Primary lineup:

SS - Rusty Priske
3B - Ken Oberkfell
RF - Chili Davis
LF - Rob Deer
1B - Mike Aldrete
C - Bob Brenly
2B - Robby Thompson
CF - Lee Mazzilli

John Rabb is the back-up catcher. Chris Brown, Tom O'Malley, and Brad Wellman are backing up the infield with Mike Jones and Steve Stanicek for the outfield.

The experts are predicting we will finish 3rd in our division, 3 games behind those damned Dodgers.

Some are calling for Eckersley to be the favourite for the NL Cy Young.

We are starting out on the road, in Houston.
