If… big IF… offense scores runs, watch out!  

The Huskies settled in at the 10 hole and got THEIR player in Julio Rodriguez. Playing in his home ballpark, his #’s should be very true to his ‘23 stat line. Does that mean 62 HR’s between he and Raleigh?!?! If so, watch out!!! Tork will fill plug-in at the DH spot nicely and hoping for 30+ HR’s from him. 

On the mound, we have a solid 1-5, but will they have a strong enough starting 4 for the playoffs?!?!  If they can get a lead early, they should be able to shut the door on their opponents. Yennier Cano will look to the 8th inning while Helsley and his 104 mph fastball should be able to whiff his opponents in the final frame. Yes, this Huskies team is very well balanced and anything but a playoff spot is a total loss.
