Yes, 14 of the 26 players on the active roster are new faces, including presumed regulars Paul DeJong, Nicky Lopez, Kevin Pillar, and Dominic Fletcher, as well as starting pitchers Michael Soroka, Erick Fedde, and Chris Flexen.

Here are the players’ preferred names and name pronunciations, for your reading pleasure:
