July 20, 2021 – Eric Menzer, President of The York Revolution minor league baseball team, discussed the changes to the league. One of the key points in this realignment is the relocation of Triple-A affiliates closer to their Major League clubs. Those affiliates, on average, will be over 200 miles closer to their parent clubs, which will allow fans in the region more access to watching their MLB team’s prospects climb the organizational ladder. There will be a new set of standards instituted throughout the entire Atlantic League and the affiliates. Facilities and player working conditions will also be upgraded and modernized to meet the needs of professional athletes and staff. Eric went on to explain how they continue to expand the use of Peoples Bank Park for other events to support the community. |
