Well the much anticipated 2010 season is upon us for the Bucks.
Tuesday is the team's Media Day. As I head over to the Woody is there any particular thoughts or questions that are out there for players and coaches?
Obviousl health/injuries are #1 on everyone's mind. Then the positional changes and usage of players including pitcher is up there.
Just to get things rolling how would YOU like to see the Bucks line-up/rotation for 2010?

Well a few things were answered today..
Best looks like he'll be ready to go next weekend or so according to Coach Todd, starting with a few innings, working his way back.
Cole Brown and Andrew Armstrong are still a ways away from returning.
Oltorik was in line for the Sunday job and looking impressive, but a shoulder bug caught him this week.
Right now its Wimmers-Wolo-? probably McKinney, with Rucinski as the closer.
Hitting wise Coach Todd said a lot of guys will be used, a deep rotation of Dew, Streng, Griffin, DeLucia, Hallberg, and Rupert will be used as corner OF's/IF's where appropriate.
Wolo said he is 100% after not really feeling it last year. Nothing of an injury, just a lot of innings and quick turnarounds with mid-week usage. Wimmers said his stamina was his focal point of improvement.
Overall sentiment, the hardest working offseason the guys have been through, ready to meet and live up to expectations.

The Oltorik "shoulder bug" is a bit more severe.
In fact season-ending surgery needing severe.
Very very tough blow for Ohio State and Ross.
