Brief outlook for created players for specific teams:

Owen Hunter, Columbus Clippers: The Clips went old, excuse me, experienced, for most of thier pitching signings. Hunter will start at minor league camp, I would say right now the Clips no. 1 pitching prospect could make a mid-season apperance, if the Columbus is out of the race.

Maximus Meridius and Harley Gathers, Hollywood Stars: the main reasons the Stars are figured to run away with the PCL. The press and the fans have put the burden of winning on thier shoulders--can these two steal enough fans from the NAL Lancers to make the PCL viable in the LA area?

Jimmy Fitzpatrick and Charlie Denton, Portland Beavers: Ever been a fan of a team that does dumb things? Like signing washed up Hal Trosky to compete with one of the top PCL firstbasemen, or going really cheap on the supporting cast. Both guys will have All-Star quality season for a .500 or worst team. On the plus side . . . I'm not sure what the plus side is.

Anton Gogolak, Sacramento Solons: Anchors a very good infield. The club most likely to challenge the Stars for the title, but only if they can find some OF help.

Rod Lockheart, San Diego Padres: Rod and fellow starter Al Brazle will be sueing the offense for non-support by mid-year. The Pads look to lose too many 2-1, 1-0 games to make the pitchers happy.

Dashiell Spivey, unnamed expansion PCL club
and
Josephus Bricker, Achilles Brown and Winston Lafayette, Negro Leaguers: a little longer wait.
