Meet the Rookies

Five young guns will join the CBL fraternity. The first round draft picks from the draft after season one are in the big leagues, and ready to play. Here are their bios.

Brenden Irons- Austin Roughnecks
From: Arlington, TX
W: 205 H: 6'3"
Hand: L
A big hitter in college ball, Brenden is slated to fill the shoes of Sean Casey. A power hitter in college, Irons was highly scouted for the CBL. The first base position had aged players, so being the first rookie first baseman to play in the CBL will put the 'Necks at an advantage.

Akifumi Koike(昭文小池)- Omaha Cyclones
From: Shizuoka, JPN
W: 180 H: 5'11"
Hand: R
The best pitcher in the draft class after the scouting combine, Koiki is comparable to a Daisuke Matsuzaka type pitcher. He has a strong curveball, and change up. With the Cyclones having just one star pitcher, he will add a lot to the line up.

Jaime Simms- Orlando Majestics
From: Los Gatos, CA
W: 194 H: 6'1"
Hand: R
Brought in to replace Nomar Garciaparra, Simms is finally able to show why he was the 3rd pick in the draft. Built with speed, and a bat that can hit for average, the short stop will be a boost to the season 2 champions. Similar to Troy Tulowitzki. He will bat in the 3 hole, in the heart of one of the strongest lineups in the CBL.

Ricky Bracket- Portland Trappers
From: Valdosta, GA
W: 173 H: 6'3"
Hand: L
A player with swag, Bracket's bat and speed can fill a leadoff spot. Similar to BJ Upton, if he gets a hold of a ball, he can launch it. His speed rounding bases, and getting to fly balls. With Jermaine Dye retiring, the Trappers have a great outfield with their new rookie.

Robert Ware- Virginia Beach Bums
From: Anderson, IN
W: 215 H: 6'8"
Hand: R
He has the size of Randy Johnson, and the identity to Brian Wilson. The "Heartland Hurler" will have a presence on the mound for seasons to come. He was added to help the Bums get younger on the mound. With a fastball over 100 miles an hour, when he's in the strike zone, he is deadly. But he does have control issuses if he doesn't get off to a good start.

So those are the rookies!
