Opening Spring Training Camp

I have decided to go into spring training camp with 37 players. I'm hoping to make some cuts after week one with the hope of having a solid 25 by the end.

Projected Line-up
For right now anyway, I'm thinking that this will be the starting lineup, rotation, and stopper for the 1970 season.

SS Luis Aparicio
LF Carlos May
3B Bill Melton
C Ed Herrmann
1B Ossie Blanco
RF Steven Houck
CF Ken Berry
2B Bobby Knoop
P Tommy John

SP 1 Tommy John
SP 2 Joe Horlen
SP 3 Gerry Janeski
SP 4 Rich Hinton
SP 5 Ken Frailing

ST Wilbur Wood

There is a lot of youth here with 3/5 of the rotation 23 or younger and 5/8 of the position players 24 or younger.

The rest of my spring training roster is as follows

C- Duane Josephson/Doug Adams
1B- Gail Hopkins/Tommy McCraw/Bob Spence
2B- Bob Christian/Jerry Hairston/Syd O'Brien
3B- Rich McKinney
SS- Bucky Dent
LF- Joseph Talley
CF- Buddy Bradford
CF- Ron Lolich
RF Walt Williams
P- Bucky Branon/Jerry Crider/Marcelino Dominguez/Jack Hamilton/Bart Johnson/Danny F Murphy/Denny O'Toole/Don Secrist/Floyd Weaver
