In total, the new player development system includes 179 teams across 17 leagues in 43 states and four provinces. Including the AZL and GCL, there are 209 teams across 19 leagues in 44 states and four provinces. That includes the 150 teams in the PDL and AZL/GCL along with the four partner leagues: the American Association, Atlantic League, Frontier League and Pioneer League.

  • Balanced Attack Backs Bauer in Win Over Texas By
    Balanced attack backs Bauer in win over Texas By Jordan Bastian and William Kosileski / MLB.com | 1:12 AM ET + 22 COMMENTS CLEVELAND -- The Indians' offensive roller coaster began to climb again on Wednesday night. One game after being quieted by the Rangers, Cleveland had contributions up and down its order to back a strong outing by Trevor Bauer, netting a 5-3 win at Progressive Field. Michael Brantley delivered a pair of RBI singles for the American League Central-leading Tribe, which also received run-scoring hits from Francisco Lindor, Edwin Encarnacion and Jose Ramirez in the team's second win in this four-game set with Texas. The Indians have a chance to win the series on Thursday. Full Game Coverage "It's a good way to play when you're getting contributions [up and down the lineup]," Indians manager Terry Francona said. "You've got guys on base. You're not going to cash in all the time like we didn't [at times]. But we kept putting pressure and fortunately got a couple tack-on runs to make the ninth inning not quite as nerve-wracking as it could have been." Rangers ace Yu Darvish took the loss after allowing three runs (two earned) over six innings, in which he struck out six and walked one. The unearned run came in the first inning, when an error by left fielder Nomar Mazara helped the Tribe get its lineup going. Brantley and Ramirez each came through with RBI singles off Darvish in the third. "I think he was [struggling] to find a rhythm with his off-speed stuff," Rangers manager Jeff Banister said of Darvish.
