TBGKon Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Good to hear. San Antonio is a triple-A market at the very least, IMO. My guess is it'll be either Las Vegas or Colorado Springs that will pack up shop and become that eventual PCL Missions club. All other clubs seem pretty firmly entrenched and/or popular.New Orleans has been tossed around too. Not too long ago they were a target of the Astros. They wanted to move the Zephyrs to the Houston metro area.While Vegas has gotten to the point where they are always the last AAA affiliate left at the dance in agreements, and I wish they would bounce, I have a gut feeling it's New Orleans who is the team to leave. If they want, I could see NOLA possibly as a Texas League team down the road if they choose to reemerge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a large beautiful ballpark. Thinking along the lines of being a travel partner for the Skeeters in the Atlantic League. But the Texas League would be a good option too. However, this is all based on rumor so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's some cheap land around the current stadium but that area needs more than a new stadium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my friend who's from San Antonio is thrilled at the thought of them becoming a AAA team in the PCL, but since we live in OKC and he'd get to see them in town every year, of course he would be. It's going to be real interesting to see how the moves go over the next 2 or so years, after all, that's how the Redhawks became the Houston farm team before selling to the Dodgers after so many years of being the Rangers system.

FlyingLamprey Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Looks like the Great Lakes Loons (Dodgers-A) are unveiling new logos on February 13th (http://www.milb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20160112&content_id=161698204&fext=.jsp&vkey=news_t456&sid=t456): Looks like they're keeping their colors, which is surprising for a Dodgers affiliate as of late, but it is good that they are keeping them. I've always liked dark green and red together. For reference, here's their current logo: Quote Drink water and try to have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WavePunter Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Are you one of our Canadian contingent? "Grey" is British.no sir.. just a red-blooded american, born in the heart of dixie (alabama) and raised in south carolina.. i do, however speak English, and the terms "English" and "British" are very much synonyms (yes, i know the difference between England and GB - and the UK as well), so i feel it could be argued that using the british form of the english word is appropriate, if not ideal. "Gray" has always felt more like a last name, and "grey" felt more like the color to me.. perhaps the main reason is simply because i learned "grey" first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
