BP Sox projection.

With the top of our lineup, especially after adding a good contact bat in Keppinger, we'll score a good amount of runs.

But the real question is if the 6-9 spots can get those RISP/pressure runs in that can win games. Last year, especially late, that was a real challenge.

The other concern is with so many strikeout bats, would opposing starters will last longer in games against us?
