I guess nobody wants to give anything away...
No one really knows anything...it's just a bunch of opinions......
Sure,
We are intending on having tryouts next Monday.
Some will come in before school and some will come in after school. From this conglomeration, we hope to find 9 position players and one or two pitchers. Of course, we'd like to have a DH as well. 
We've thought about inviting kids from other teams to tryout for us as well but that is against the rules and so...
Coaches can't play and that really hurts us. While I would be a liability, my assistant coaches can really play. 
Seriously, we have some talent returning in that we lost one pitcher from our team last year. We have several candidates looking to fill that one spot. We have lost all of our infield except 1st base but our JV team went 17-3 last year and so, we think we have a couple of candidates for each of those spots. We are thinking about moving two of our better players position wise. One from the OF to second and one from 1st to centerfield. We will see how that works. We have a new catcher who has earned a reputation for being very good. Now, we will have to put the pieces together. If we can get someone to sit on the old man, then we have a chance to be ok this year.

Funny...I was just working on this for our media guide.
Here you go.
Lane Tech Indians
Return the core of a young and talented team that finished last season with a City Championship and Regional Championship before losing to OPRF in the sectional finals. Lane has one of the best 07’ classes in the state, with 8 of the 9 projected starters.
Sr./CF William Davila (committed to College of Dupage) leads the Indians at the plate and on the field. The Junior class is led by returning starters SS Josh Colon, 3B Sam Graebe, RF Danny Serrano, and RHP Bryan Platt. Other top Jr.’s are C Jay Quilles, LHP/LF Scott Doebler, 2B Adam Kubes, and 1B/RHP Adam Nieves.
