A New Season, Some New Lineups
Apr. 8th, 2009 07:15 pmA beauty of a Sunday and we had two games to play. I had the toughest assignment; keep myself out of the lineup and evaluate. After scoring only three runs in the first game, I needed to check things out. Sure enough, the bats were back. I can see this team averaging ten runs a game.
I can tell it's going to be a fun season because of the group. We picked a few players that joined us for last season's Russian River Tournament and a few before we opened this season. There is suddenly more interest in tournaments and social activity and the more the team bonds, the better. It's a good mix of veterans and newbies and I probably have the deepest pitching situation, since I started coaching.
We will be going to a Easter brunch after our game Sunday. The C-MEN are actively discussing attending the North Star Classic Tournament, which is one of my favorite tournaments in friendly Minneapolis. Good times.
