Which player is most likely to get their first title this season?
Is there an obvious rookie of the Year candidate?
What new team is most likely to break up within a couple events?
Is there anyone of note that still hasn't announced their partner for next season?

I think an indicator of how weak tour is now - and I agree 100%he probably wins this year. In the old days Pat Powers was an elite leaper who was also the best hitter/blocker on tour a lot of the time, and he rarely won. Troy is not good at any skill other than jumping and he probably wins this year

Not too shabby a year.

Hanley has to be right there for most underrated ever, could do anything.

Wishful thinking, but Bomgren
Silila Tucker (also wishful thinking)
Agreed.. or whoever plays with Ricardo
Who is Evans, Doherty, Priddy playing with?

I believe Priddy/Lee and Evans/Ricardo was what I heard most recently. I'm surprised that no one has mentioned Doherty.

I am also curious who guys like Mark Burik and Ty Loomis end up with.

Agreed! I thought Lotman looked really good at Chicago. Tough serving, good hands, lots of blocks, and was really encouraging to Miles.

I like his swagger but his physical abilities and lack of exceptional height seem like a pretty firm ceiling given his age and ball control skills

Wouldn't be surprised to see Benesh make some deep runs. 6'9 with a great serve and improving blocking. Gotta think he will make strides but ya never know

I would take Bomgren/Theo over Patterson/Field pretty much every single time.
