2015 OUTLOOK
The Raiders return 2 of their top 4 arms from last year. Going into the season they will need a couple players to step up and solidify the pitching staff and fill holes offensively. East Sac success will be dependent upon those 2 things happening. The Raiders have an excellent senior class with talent and leadership abilities. That group's success on the field and ability to groom inexperienced players will be instrumental in the team's fortunes in 2015.
