Not unlike our dilemma last week when the Jays faced John Russell’s Pirates, we’ll face another conundrum when Dusty Wathan brings his Williamsport Crosscutters into Winooski to take on FOTL, the Vermont Lake Monsters.

First-year manager Dusty Wathan knows all about playing in minor league baseball, having had a career that spanned over 14 years. He draws on his experiences in the minors — as well as being the son of former major league catcher John Wathan — to teach his players.
“It’s like starting all over again,” said Wathan, set to begin his term as the Williamsport Crosscutters manager tonight. “You’re looking through a different window, you can remember being there and what was going through your head at that moment. Now I’m on the other side.”

We plan on catching up with the FLP on the Vermont leg of our summer baseball trip.
