Starting pitcher Jason Luke is one of three who will form the core of the Farmers pitching staff for the coming 2016 season. Pitchers Chase Hacker and Lyle Hibbitt will accompany him.

Pitching will be the Farmers main strength in the coming 2016 season.

Back are the top three starters in Jason Luke, Chase Hacker and Lyle Hibbitts.

“I like our team. We return (three) pitchers that have been on the mound, pitched in playoff games and won those games. I think the combination of Jason, Chase, and Lyle will keep us in most games if we catch the ball,” head coach Jon Nordin said “We have a lot of question marks around them though, and will need to figure who we are best with in the lineup. We seem to have a lot of options and that’s a good thing.”
