What to Watch For
Coming off a conference championship the Cavs will be looking to take another step in 2017. Returning six from last year’s lineup, the middle of the field is solid and reliable. The pitching staff should have depth and be able to rely on multiple guys to get key outs throughout the year. Look for the younger players to develop throughout the year, to provide more depth to the lineup and roster.
