The Scranton/Wilkes Barre Railriders are back in Pennsylvania after an extended spring training.
While the entire team is not at PNC field yet. 4th year Manager Shelly Duncan ran through some drills today with those who made the trip North.
Shelly Duncan, SWB Railriders manager says, “ It’s extremely exciting being back. I was driving in the last night. And, you know, when you spend as much time as you do here and you feel like those off seasons are very little, I felt like I, hadn’t even left yet.
And it was, it was neat. We had a really good group of guys in that locker room. The roster that they’re put together for us has a ton of talent, some experience, a lot of things to look forward to. I’m really excited about this group. The chemistry that they’ve built in Spring training, the way they get along is, has been exciting.
The urgency and excitement they have to get going is exciting. you always just got to play the games and you got to take things one day at a time. Our goal here is to make every single one of those players a better baseball player. Get in the big leagues. We really love the way this roster is right now, but everybody knows that in AAA, it is right time to be completely different in two weeks. “
The team will open the season on the road with a trip to New York to play Buffalo and Rochester.
