The Bbc Grosseto is a candidate for a place in the 2022 Scudetto Poule. The Maremma club presented itself on the market with two big shots: the Neptunese winger Paolino Ambrosino and the Venezuelan pitcher, with Portuguese passport, Luis Gonzales, a left-handed who showed off last year in Sala Baganza (3-3, 1.95)
«Grosseto is history – are the first words of Ambrosino – Coming from Neptune I know very well what baseball is in this city. I thank the club for the trust they have placed in me and I can say that I fully share your playoff dream. When Olivelli’s call arrived I was talking about the renewal with Neptune but a few phone calls were enough to convince me ».
Words confirmed by the sports director Filippo Olivelli: «When we learned that it would be possible to take him away from Neptune it was our first choice and I must say it was an easy agreement. Grosseto and Nettuno are the most important cities for playing baseball ».
The Bbc Grosseto, after having closed the season that marked the return to Serie A with a second place in the poule salvation after ten years, wants to raise the bar: “We have decided to take a step forward – said the manager Claudio Banchi – compared to last year. The goal will be to return to the top eight of Serie A and to do this the first part of the season will be fundamental: in fourteen matches we will play the chance to win one of the two places that guarantee the title. We have made some choices, which we hope will be successful. Paolo Ambrosino was a great opportunity, which will allow us to reinforce the line of the outsiders, but we will not stop there: we will insert quality players in the fundamental roles ».
Diesse Olivelli also spoke about the next steps: «The BBC has decided to spend the visa available to reinforce the box with a foreign batter and to field two-three community foreigners in the match. One is Luis Gonzales, fresh from a good season in Sala Baganza, and another could be Sosa, after verifying his condition. We have confirmed the 2021 roster as a whole but for various reasons will no longer be with us Mercuri, Riccucci, Pancellini (who chose to go to the Bsc).
