get it together. The playoffs have begun and, well, the Kids didn't make it. They will head to the consolation bracket, so maybe they can finish at the top of that. They finished the regular season in last place in their division and 8th out of 10 in the league.
Individually, several players have had nice seasons, but no one seems to have been willing to carry the team. Here is the current roster of the Coca Cola Kids:
C: Sean Murphy, Oakland A's
1B: Nathaniel Lowe, Texas Rangers
2B: Christopher Morel, Chicago Cubs
3B: Ezequiel Duran, Texas Rangers
SS: Eugenio Suarez, Seattle Mariners
OF1: Aledmys Diaz, Houston Astros
OF2: Brian Reynolds, Pittsburg Pirates
OF3: Cedric Mullins, Baltimore Orioles
Utlility: Shohei Ohtani, Los Angels Angels
SP: Lucas Giolito, Chicago White Sox
SP: Yu Darvish, San Diego Padres
SP: Triston McKenzie, Cleveland Guardians
SP: Marcus Stroman, Chicago Cubs
RP: Gregory Soto, Detroit Tigers
RP: Erik Swanson, Seattle Mariners
P: Jason Adam, Tampa Bay Rays
P: Jordan Montgomery, St. Louis Cardinals
Bench: Jonathan India, Cincinnati Reds, 2B; Chris Taylor, Los Angeles Dodgers, 2B, 3B, SS, OF; Wilmer Flores, San Francisco Giants, 1B, 2B, 3B; Riley Green, Detroit Tigers, OF; Miles Mikolas, St. Louis Cardinals, SP.
In some cases, the Kids have been attempting to pick up youth for next year in the case of Morel, Duran, and McKenzie. In other cases, the Kids have picked up some veterans hoping for a resurgence in numbers like Suarez, Soto, and Darvish. Nonetheless, it has been a rough year for the Kids. We will report back in at the end of the playoffs with a final report.
