    Does anybody have a list of all the teams that will be minor league free agents next year. I know Las Vegas, Albuquerque, Memphis and New Orleans in the PCL will be free agents although I know both ABQ ane Vegas will be pursuing the Dodgers. I think the Mets would like to get out of the PCL and back into the IL. I'd assume that the Marlins would like to get closer to the East Coast as well.

    I heard that the Mets want to go to Syracuse or Buffalo.

    Would make much better sense than Nawlins...... I just don't think it's ever wise to be that far away from your Triple A Club. It sucks to have to call somebody up while he is playing in Tacoma and you need him tomorrow. Then you grab somebody from AA and you take a loss because he isn't MLB ready. As we found out with both the Mets and Padres last year one game can make a difference.

    That's good news.....

    As expected the Dodgers left Las Vegas and will be heading to Albuequerque. That leaves the Nationals and Marlins as potential teams that will be in Las Vegas next year. Honestly I'd rather have the Nats but I know it's going to be the Marins. That may have to be the longest distance between a parent club and an affiliate.
