As the GM of the Milford JetHawks I am here to address any questions you may have. I know many of you are questioning my move of sending Cristobal down to AAA, but we have thought long and hard about our decision and believe this is best. He will have time to season and get accustomed to our cultures and our game.

We are going to break camp with 11 pitchers, 5 outfields and 8 infielders. Taking 11 pitchers limited who we took a long with us as well, but we feel with the way our pitching was last year its better to have too much than not enough.

Our current outfield is going to be Johnnie Shipton in CF, Santo Batista in RF and Robert Parrish in LF. We beleive with the springs they had and their experience from last year we are taking a step in the right direction. Bill Schneider a RF will be our starting DH and Leo Alvarez will be outfield replacment. Having a starting 3, helped our decision to send Cuevas to AAA. We want him to swing the bat and play the game, and we felt like he wasn't going to play enough here.

Hopefully the explination make sense to you all. If not show up tomorrow and watch us play, hopefully that will solve any controversy. Thank you for coming, and we will see you on the field.

-----------------------------------
The decision came down between Cristobal and the following 2 guys. Robert and Bill both showed promise during time last season, so we felt it was their job to lose. In the meantime Cristobal will be in AAA.
