Opening Day Roster Nearly Set

With a few days left until opening day at Wuerfel Park, we have cut the squad down to 27 players.  All three of the remaining cuts will be positions players including two catchers.  As of right now the pitching staff will include starters Bryan Rembisz, Ryan Gehring, David Nathanson, JT King, and Brett Bostelman.  The bullpen will consist of righties Matt Dillard, Zac Cole, Jeff Williams, and Nick Pepper with lefties Jared Locke and Ted Gjeldum.  The Beach Bums' first round draft pick in the Frontier League Tryout Camp, Peter McEneaney, has also made the squad and will start the season in the bullpen.

The exact order of the rotation has not been announced yet, but I'm assuming we will be able to make that public soon.  A list of position players who have made the cut should be available tomorrow or the next day.

Wow opening day is almost here. I know your getting busy to start the season and I just want to say thank you for keeping us all updated as to what is going on off the field. We will be out on opening day to support the third season of Bums ball. Thanks again Jason.
