Rough Riders are the new guys in town, and they're really tall

2011 Rookie of the Year and former Dodger Brad Brickhouse has formed a new Wiffle Atlanta franchise: The Rough Riders. They will be a formidable squad with Brad at the helm, and also the tallest WATL team ever.

A team of athletes, the Rough Riders should be more than competitive right away. However the pitching staff is incomplete and Brickhouse is searching the waiver wire for another pitcher or two. Rumor is that he will look to the minor leagues for a call up.

The roster is as such: Brad Brickhouse, 6'0", Throws R, Hits R; Mike Brickhouse, 6'4", Throws R, Hits R; Stephen Archer, 6'5", Throws R, Bats R; Ethan Hardy, 6'2", Throws R, Bats R; Michael B., 6'4", Throws L, Bats R.

So, going in to 2012, we still maintain the healthy 6-team roster of the last couple of years: these new guys, the old Pirate and Swamp Donkey ships, the NBC and TPC, and Wiffle House.
