The Santurce Cangrejeros are ready for the 2006 season.

The rotation will be:

1. Peavy
2. Sheets
3. Lowe
4. Bonderman
5. Kazmir

Relievers:

1. Wickman
2. Speier
3. MacDougal
4. Ohman
5. Heath Bell
6. Luis Gonzalez

Lineup:

1. Marcus Giles 2b
2. Atkins 3b
3. Berkman RF
4. Sweeney 1b
5. Ibanez LF
6. Crosby SS
7. Molina C
8. Nix CF
9. Pitcher

Bench

1. Neifi Perez
2. Gabe Kapler
3. Conor Jackson
4. Javier Valentin
5. Jacob Cruz

The Cangrejeros believe they have a young and good pitching staff, with some good veterans in the bullpen and a very consistent lineup. Defense is good, especially up the middle and the bench is reliable with guys like Perez, Cruz and Valentin.

Last year the Cangrejeros won 88 games, will they improve on that number in 2006?
