3B: Keston Hiura
IF: Triston Casas, Nick Gonzales

MR/LR: Dustin May, Asa Lacy
SU: Aaron Ashby, Liam Hendriks, Evan Godwin, Jose Alvarado, Nick Anderson
CL: Jasseel De La Cruz
IL: Hunter Bishop, Mitchell White
Dustin May made the team largely because he's out of options. BNN's preseason predictions has us winning the East with a 101-61 record. One very interesting thing is that they project Christian Little to be a top 10 pitcher in the league (!) so when Mitchell White comes back it's going to be interesting to see what happens. Although Bramdon Perez was up last year, I was planning on making Kjerstad the 4th OF but Bishop's injury gives Perez a reprieve. Odds are that the primary DH while Bishop is out will be Nick Gonzales, giving him a chance of at-bats and having Torkelson slide into the OF.
