Coming off a horrendous 51-111 season, the Idaho Steelheads have nowhere to go but up. Buoyed by the #2 overall pick in the 2019 draft, CF, Bingham Klebel the lineup looks to improve in every area.
Let's take a look at the 2020 lineup and pitching staff:

The starting rotation is as follows:
24 year old Ron Booth is the number 1 starter. He is followed by:
