WHAT TO WATCH FOR:
Expectations for Team - The strength of the Saints in 2023 should be the depth of their pitching staff. They will have some depth to their lineup as well. If they can get some timely hitting the Saints could be in position of another strong playoff push this season.
QUOTE FROM THE COACH:
We are replacing a lot of players but that makes me excited to see new guys get opportunities and we'll see what they can do. Several of our younger players last year have gotten much bigger and stronger and I'm looking forward to seeing how that pays off on the field.
