With a lot of veterans, they have a lot of potential to win another Governor's Cup and IL Title. They are on the road right now in Norfolk and lost last night 10-5. I will update you next week after our homestand in Durham running the 9- 16 vs. Buffalo(Cleveland(Yeah :thumbsup: )) and Ottowa(Orioles) who are both in the north division. Buffalo is 12 and 13 right now and Ottowa(#1 in north) with a 15 and 9 record. It' ll be a test but the Bulls will Prevail.

Thanks and Update will come soon. :clap:

Thanks Drew, can you give specifics on the up and comers that might make it to the big leagues. I love BJ Upton too. Looking forward to seeing him play at the big league level when he's truly ready.
