I know the season's young in the Hudson Valley, but I get the feeling this is going to a looooooong season. Wish we had some high draft picks to look forward to but they're all high school picks, so they probably wouldn't come here anyway. Hopefully, we'll do better now that Brooklyn's out of our way for awhile. Any ideas as to whether Gibson will continue to be one of our starting pitchers? Maybe Fuller?
ReplyDeleteI would like to see Fuller start, but he pitched a full Junior College season so I doubt they want him throwing too many more innings. The offense seems to be a pretty big problem outside of Tyler Bortnick and Chris Murrill so far.
