DBL Championsihps: 1 (2021)

Injuries
SS Tom Mendez (5-6 Months)
MR Ron Martin (1 week)

Key Players:
Eduardo Green: .283-43-115
Jose Matos: 12-10 3.66
Seth Bennet: 9-6 2.34

Key to Victory:
Score runs. The Clippers scored the 2nd most runs in the DE Conference this year, but they are going up against one of the games, if not the games, best pitching staff. If they want to win they have to score runs.

Lewes Braves
Southern Division Champion - 110-52 .679
Playoff Appearances: 5 (2015, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022)
DBL Championsihps: 2 (2015, 2020)

Injuries:
SP Terry Taylor (4 weeks)
MR Manuel Romero (4 weeks)
SP Julian Codne (3-4 months)

Key Players:
SP Cristobal Diaz (20-3 1.51)
SP Robert Walker (25-6 2.26)
SP Julian Moran (10-5 2.64)

Key to Victory:
Do what they do best. Score some runs and don't let the opponent cross the plate. The Braves have 3 top lefties going games 1-2-3, which some see as a disadvantage. Diaz set the record for best ERA by a SP, and Walker set the record for most wins by a pitcher. As long as they continue to throw the ball strong they will be tough to beat.

Delaware Conference Prediction:
Lewes Braves win the series in 5 games.

I just don't see the Clippers being able to handel the pitching of the Braves. Diaz, Moran, and Walker will prove to be just too tough.
