Mavericks roster “95-97 percent” complete
MEDICINE HAT, AB — Six weeks remain until the Medicine Hat Mavericks crack into the 2018 WMBL campaign, and Kyle Swannack nearly has his roster solidified.
“I’d say, numbers wise, it’s about 95 percent. 95 to 97 percent,” said the club’s pitching coach and assistant GM. “There are just a few other key arms we’ve got to get that I’m just waiting on. Other than that, position players are good to go, filled up.”
The Mavs, who were eliminated in the second round of last year’s playoffs to the Edmonton Prospects, are taking a direct approach to bolstering up the mound. The last few pieces are expected to come together over the next month, with ongoing recruitment through the opening few weeks of the season.
