Senior designated hitter/catcher Mickey Maspons leads the team in batting (.361) and power (six doubles, a triple and three home runs). After eight of 18 Eastern League games, Maspons is set to repeat as league batting champion. Last season Maspons hit .491 in league games and won the title by 52 points.
