Editor’s notes: <\/strong> Mac’s Sprayers…aka last year’s Mac’s Mauraders – the 2007 AAU Champions<\/strong><\/a>. Last year’s MVP, Frankie Perez, who provided the most dramatic moment in AAU history with his championship game – extra inning – walk off home run, is back with Macs, but the pitching staff is completely revamped. Last year it was MVPitcher Colin McKenzie and Rob Schweyer, with Schweyer pitching well enough to be co-MVPitcher. But both are gone from Mac’s roster and we see this impressive list, of Jeremy Manley, Robbie O’Brien, BJ Hunhoff, and Sebastian Gervasutti. Just yesterday, we were talking about the five deep staff of the Texaco Pirates. Those bullpens are going to be crowded in Orlando, or maybe the teams will take turns sending the extras to Disneyworld for a day? Nine pitchers between these two teams. Some would say there aren’t enough innings to go around, but remember this is January, so many managers are reluctant to overwork guys that haven’t been pitching on a regular basis. It’s a 32 team, four day tournament, and fatigue does take a toll come Sunday. Even in last year’s championship game, both Mac’s and Broken Bow went through their entire pitching staffs before it was over. I guess if the Boston Red Sox can go to a six man rotation, as some say they will, then nothing wrong with being 4-5 deep in Orlando. Unless, of course, you’re an AAU manager of a team that is still hunting for pitching.<\/em><\/p>\n

Trivia time: <\/strong> How many players from last year’s AAU Championship team are back in 2008? Answer after the jump. (Looking for the answer to yesterday’s trivia question about the “Four Aces” on Penn Corp? see Texaco Pirates roster post below)<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Answer: Seven. Four, plus three coaches. The four returning players are Ryan Kostel, Todd Schultz, Frank Perez and Felix Heredia. Coaches Tom McAvoy, Paul McCart and Mike Gasaway are also back.<\/p>\n
