It was a disappointing 1920 for the Unicorns so it feels natural that there's a fair bit of churn in the side as they seek to correct their course towards playoff ambitions. Time will give us the answer if trading 37 year old B.J. Jasper for a couple of prospects to Saffron will be worth it.
Time will also reveal if letting hits and home run leader Kyle Lownes walk will be worth it or if the contributions of Matty Richey and Nathan Crews can help offset that loss.
Dennis Sullenger, his excellent 1920 season cut short by injury will be firing to go for a full season.
The pitching lineup, led by the mercurial Tijs Oudenkerk is shaping up quite nicely for 1921.
The Unicorns could go either way really.
