Batting:
Attachment 17897

Batting Notes:
The offense has been off to a great start.
Ryan Royster is off an amazing career star .245/3/16 and 4 steals. My scouting report on Royster is he has great speed 11 steal last season in the mionors. He has 30-40 homer run potential he could be a 20-20-20 man some day.
Carlos Pena is off to an outstanding start no doubt in my mind he'll be the MVP again.
Longoria is a great cleanup man .336/7/22 and more to come.
Freese the is a good hitter .362/7/28 i think the fans exspect a lot from him. Major Pressure on Freese
