Rochester Gray Caps

Gray Caps pitcher Dan Calhoun is one of the best, and can carry this team a long way. Doug Potts is a great second baseman, but Bill Cordell on first base looks like a glaring weakness. If the infield can hold their own, with solid pitching, Rochester might be looking pretty good in 1871.

Syracuse Lions

Syracuse has the best center fielder in the game, period. Luther Rogan is a force to be reckoned with, both on the plate and on the field. Pitching is nice, and everything else looks about average. Owner Walt Wells is known to be a very easy-going owner, so management shouldn't have much to worry about if this season isn't the best. There's definitely foundation to build on.

Troy Titans

Believe it or not, but this small town team looks great. Teddy Pembroke is being hailed as the best young talent in America, and he'll be on the mound leading the Titans in 1871. Bruce Robertson in right field will be an added boost on the offense as well as the defense.

Utica Red Caps

The pitching is there, the catching is great, infield defense is terrific. 1871 might be known as the year of the small town club with Troy and Utica leading the pack.
