Schedule starting to look like the good old days with 6 levels and 2 GCL teams and 2 DSL teams. Really interested to see Caba and Tait play and love the early start of the season that would allow them to get promoted to Clearwater later in the year if they play well.

Rickardo Perez back from suspension. Missed all of last year.
A full year away from baseball is a steep hill to climb.
Simmons on rehab should rake.
Through 3 IP FCL Phils are scoreless. Tait (0/2) popped out with 2 out and 2 on in the third.
Starlyn Caba HR
FCL guys getting demolished. 11-1 now. I want a do over.
The worry with FCL was always that the pitching was not that good, though Segura repeating the level is supposed to be better than this.
