Business.- - for a level of baseball that's- increasingly driven by- individual players trying to- make their way to the - show... the biloxi shuckers and- their back-to-back southern - league south division titles...- continue to find a way for thei- team goals... to co-exist with- those individual goals.

- in their five years on the gulf- coast... the shuckers have- already been to the championshi- series three times... falling a- combined four wins short, of- winning it all... all three - times.- but those gut-wrenching losses- would be a lot harder to- swallow... if not for the major- league success rate... for the- players that come out of- double-aa biloxi.

- overall... 34 former shuckers - have gone on to make- their big league debuts... 25 o- them with the milwaukee - brewers.- and with the first spring - training games right around the- corner, this weekend... shucker- manager mike- guerrero is ready to graduate - that next wave of - major leaguers... in 20-20.

- - "our priority is the players.

And if we're- able to accomplish all of those- awesome things, you're doing a- lot.

So i'm actually- really happy for the last two - years that are over with.

We- have a really awesome year- in front of us and hopefully we- can develop that major league - winning ball- player at this level and some o- those guys get to the big - leagues this year and we can- accomplish and also get back to- the championship and fulfill ou- goal."

- - - in 20-19... the shuckers set a- new franchise record, for - wins... with an overall record,- of 82-57.
