Phillips (15), and outfielder Peter Bourjos (9). They will also feature former 1st rounder (37th overall) Trevor Bell in their starting rotation.

Rancho Cucamonga will bring back a few familiar faces for the 2008 campaign. With pitchers Aaron Cook and Jared Incinelli, catcher Flint Wipke, infielders Tadd Brewer and Larry Infante, and outfielders Jordan Renz, Cliff Remole, and Drew Toussaint, this version of the Quakes will have a good mix of young talent and strong veteran leadership.
