West Michigan Whitecaps Notebook Take a look at the numbers for the West Michigan Whitecaps this season and it’s easy to see why the team has found the success they have. While second-year manager Tony Cappuccilli won’t argue with what it says on paper, the deeper the team goes into the season, the more Cappuccilli can see how the team dynamics go much deeper than the statistics.

Just like that, we blinked and we’re two months into the Midwest League regular season.

One of my favorite stories out of the minors this season is with #Dodgers RHP Patrick Copen, a 23-year-old relief arm. Less than a year ago, Copen was struck in the face by a line drive, causing him to lose vision in his right eye. Copen not only retaught himself how to hold
