The fans are hoping that the team can finally make that last step and take the pennant this year after going close the previous 3 years. The independent league assessors are not so sure they team will be heading in that direction. They feel the squad is now past its best and will be going down the table instead of up. They have given a prediction of 6th in the NL table with a record of 74-80.
The MLB have decided not to make any changes this year and have left the season as 154 games long.
The Quakers players were back in training early again this year as they try to push themselves into that top spot in the NL table. This pleased the Gm and Manager as they used all these extra workouts to get a feel for the best players in the squad. All of this work has led them to decide that the following 25 players are the ones to take the team into the season this year.
