The Greenhorn attack is well balanced featuring high on base averages at the top of the lineup followed by four thumpers to drive them in. As a team, teh starting 9 are batting .319 / 400 / .517 with a .918 OPS, an 104 HR. The starters RC/27 is 7.9.

The only potential weakness is a lack of overall starter speed, with just the leadoff batter John McGraw on pace for over 20 stolen bases. The bench makes up for this, in a way, with Eddie Collins and Bobby Murcer available to pinch run in close games.

The Helena Handbaskets lead the way with three All Stars, though none starting, followed by Bostons Terrier, DC Chips, Planet 10, and the Potomac Rage at two each.
