Since the spring training camp has started, the Memphis Blues are doing great. With a solid pitching rotation, involving Pedro Crespo, Roosevelt Gant, Rico Parra, Christy Gold and Alex Beltre, the Blues are looking for a great season.
There is no designed closer for now, so Julio Mercado and Wes Aumont may split closing opportunity.
There is still some free spots in the ML pitching staff for the upcoming season. Maybe we will see some young players having there chance.
There is only few pitching prospects in the minors, so the Blues hope to avoid major injuries in the ML.
For the positions players, the ML staff is almost complete. The offensive success of the Blues depends on Rafael Montanez(CF), Nigel Kelly(3B), Von Byrne(2B) and Alex Forest(C). The defensive of the Blues may be a problem, but we will see.
The leadoff hitter will probably be Bryan Guerrero(LF). If he reach the bases, he may be in the top for stolen bases.
The Blues were not very active on signing free agents. This first season will be use to evaluate some players, and some changes will be done if need.
Does the Blues have the perfect staff for WS? We will have to wait before anwsering this question.
We are waiting for the real season to start.
