HERE, but here’s the annual summary.
Look, I am not expecting some miraculous surge straight off. All I want this season is for us to consolidate last year’s efforts and keep the trajectory headed in the right direction.
Catchers- C Les Nunamaker (R)
- Roger Bresnahan (R)
Les holds the starting spot thanks to his great 1914 campaign.
Infielders- 1B Ty Cobb (L)
- 2B Heinie Groh (R)
- 3B Frank Baker (L)
- SS Buck Herzog (R)
- Honus Wagner (R)
- John Henry Lloyd (L)
- Scott Ingerton (R)
- Larry Kopf (S)
Ty has been working non-stop on the defensive requirements of a first-baseman, and we’ll just have to see how he handles it in game situations. Oscar will most likely come in as a defensive sub late, with Ty rotating to CF, or some combination thereof. Not ideal, but hopefully the bat covers the glove.
Outfielders- LF Elmer Smith (L)
- CF Max Carey (S)
- RF Zaza Harvey (L)
- Oscar Charleston (L)
- Armando Marsans (R)
Some concerns about Carey in the offseason, and form will dictate the composition here as we progress. Will almost certainly look different in the latter part of the season than the earlier.
Rotation- RHP Rube Vickers
- RHP Babe Adams
- LHP Wilbur Cooper
- RHP Hooks Dauss
After a couple years in the wilderness, Babe has worked super hard and deserves another shot. He must perform, though, or he’ll be done with us.
Bullpen- RHP Louis Drucke
- RHP Russ Ford
- RHP Al Mamaux
- LHP Lefty Williams
