Pirate City Notes: The Pirates Have a Strong Group of Middle Infielders in the Upper Levels

BRADENTON, Fla. - Today was a camp day at Pirate City, with two games going on. The Indianapolis roster took on the Altoona roster, while the Bradenton and West Virginia rosters squared off. Those rosters aren't exact at this point, although there were a few cases where today's lineups gave a hint for the upcoming season.

The most interesting thing about the lineups was the middle infield formation for the upper level teams. Recently demoted infielders Kevin Newman (SS) and Kevin Kramer (2B) made up the middle infield for the Indianapolis team. Cole Tucker (SS) and Stephen Alemais (2B) made up the middle infield for Altoona.
