MP 13U Tigers: First Glance

After two practices, the Tigers are beginning to settle into their positions. Soon I’ll learn all their names. Were the season to start today, here’s my batting order and depth chart:

SS. Jalen: SS, P: Needs to be on the field all the time, at a key position.

C. Nate: C, P, SS: Experienced, but small. Team’s best catcher, may be more valuable at other positions.

CF. Red: any position: wants to play first, but may be more valuable at other positions.

RF. Pittman: 3B, P, C, 1B. Big guy. Experienced player.

3B. Thomas: 3B, P, SS. Experienced. May be team’s most consistent pitcher.

P. Plom (lefty): P, 2B, CF. little lefty. Experienced.

1B. Alex: P, C, 1B. Big guy with good arm and glove.

2B. Jessica: 2B, P, 1B, CF. Athletic. Will embarrass some boys this fall.

LF. Marlon (lefty): CF, 1B, 2B. Inexperienced. Will move up in order once he gets his hitting down.

Matthew: OF, 2B. Can get the bat on the ball as good as most of these guys.

“Gilbert” (lefty): 2B, P, OF. Little lefty, inexperienced. Decent glove.
