ATLANTA BRAVES

Owner: Ted Turner
Manager: Brian Snitker
Ball Park: Sun Trust Park

Atlanta Banking on Ace

The Atlanta Braves have put together their roster for the upcoming campaign, and no doubt was to anchor their rotation with a big arm. The Braves brought in 27 year old right hander David Cone and the man to get the job done. Cone is expected to give the club heavy innings and bring a no nonsense approach to winning baseball.

"He is a hell of a competitor" says Braves skipper Brian Snitker.

Along with Cone the Braves will field a lineup of multi talent. Ben Oglive and Bert Campeneris will cover the ground in the outfield while Todd Frazier is expected to be the big bat in the order and propel the offense.

Jonathan Schoop is an intrieging player at second base while Eric Rasmussen is expected to be among the most dependable closer in the game.

"We built this team on balance" says team president Ted Turner. As this team breaks for camp, building the chemistry to an nice start to the season is the priority

BALTIMORE ORIOLES

Team Owner: Peter Angelos
Manager: Brandon Hyde
Ball Park: Camden Yards
Fan Loyalty: Good Loyalty

Youth Serves In Baltimore

The Baltimore Orioles are looking to the future in this first season of the league. The Orioles concede that winning on a consistent basis should be the objective of any big league side. In fact one would be very hard pressed to find a single player over the age of 30.

The stars of the future are obvious and on display, George Kell at 21 years of age is set at third base while at only 19 years old, the very anticipated talent of Arky Vaughn is hoped to be a part of Baltimore for many years to come. Add to this center fielder Jay Johnston 21 years of age and Butch Wynegar at 20 years and one better be cautious about handing out beers after a win.

The pitching also goes deep. Brandon Webb has the confidence to be the main man. Still 19 year of George Devlin has a huge amount of potential and hope. Derek Lowe is also the type of steady closer a good team will need.

If the Orioles actually compete in 2020, whispers of multiple titles for a long time could be started, but you didnt read that here.

BOSTON RED SOX

Owner: Tom Yawkey
Manager: Joe McCarthy
Ball Park: Fenway Park

Red Sox Pitching Leading Way

It is indeed true that the Boston Red Sox will showcase maybe the most dynamic short stop in the league as Francisco Lindor defines superstar. Still the Red Sox made it clear that their road map to success will be their pitching.

Boston has four starting pitchers that they like alot. Toad Ramsey is the ace and the left hander from Indiana is deceptive and elusive on the mound. Rube Foster also adds some power and country strong stuff which will also be complimented by Jack McDowell, who is simply known as Black Jack.

The Red Sox know that their fanbase will expect much, and they intend to hit the ground running in the Amercian League East.

Starting Lineup

C - Jack Rowe
1B - Brian Hunter
2B - Cotton Tierney
3B - Bill Coughlin
SS - Francisco Lindor
LF - Pete Duncan
CF - Whitey Lockman
RF - RJ Reynolds

Ace - Toad Ramsey
Closer - Tyler Clippard

Brooklyn Dodgers

Team Owner: Walter O'Malley
Manager: Dave Roberts
Ball Park: Ebbets Field

Dodgers Hoping To Build Home Town Flavor

Brooklyn is all about the community, and this team will be a big part of Brookly. Ace Jesse Duryea is said to have among the strongest arms in the league and is expected to be a true ace with heavy innings. Matt Clement brings some character to the rotation and is already making himself an easly fan favorite.

The lineup is lead by a steady outfield lead by the bright smile of Krist Bryant. Bryant is a well groomed all around talent and at 22 years old the tyoe of player a team can build around. Next to Bryant is Don Lock who is an excellent defender and provides some pop as well. Mickety Doolan will be near the middle of everything as the short stop could bat near the top of the order and run the defense along with catcher Terry Kennedy.

The Dodgers have avoided the temptation of a superstar, and are like many other clubs looking to build a young team that will compete for seasons more to come.

CHICAGO WHITE SOX

Team Owner: Jerry Reinsdorf
Manager: Ricky Renteria
Ball Park: Comiskey Park

Sox Lead By Unique Two Way Star

The White Sox are looking to impress the league and their fans with a unique player who very well could be the best player the club has on the mound and at the plate. Cal McVey can hit line drives with the best of them and word is out now that he has some incredible stuff on the mound. The Sox will use McVey in both roles and take advantage of a truly dynamic talent.

Outfielders Cy Seymour and Bob Allison also will provide expected punch for a lineup that should be quite formidable. Defensive skills like those of Luke Appling should also come in handy. Harry Maupin and Sloppy Thurston complete a rotation that may have some real questions to them. On the other hand closer Tug McGraw is expected to be among the best in the game.

Starters
