The Braves’ organization could not wait to unveil the new Braves Field at Upper Cape Cod Regional Technical School, which brought them into the upper tier of Cape Cod Baseball League facilities after endur- ing substandard Coady Field for years and years. The team entered the season hoping to defend its 2005 west division championship and, on paper, had a roster that looked like it should have them right back in contention. Yes, things were looking pretty good in Bourne back before the season began. Fast forward to the latter half of July and the optimism surrounding the club has receded. What looked like it might be the most fun summer of baseball in years has become one that the organization is looking forward to ending. Not only have the losses piled up—the team was 5-19-2 at this writing—but the Braves have also been one of the hardest hit teams in terms of bad weather this year. Down the stretch, the club will have to play a hand- ful of doubleheaders and has only the all-star game to look forward to as an off day. Head Coach Harvey Shapiro, who has tasted both DANIEL W. WEBB good and bad seasons in his many years skippering Cape League clubs, does not want much out of the rest of the year, just to see his team compete day in and day out “I’m not looking at making the playoffs now, I just Loretta Recalls the want to be competitive,” Shapiro said before his team Cape League got on the bus for a road trip Friday afternoon. Shapiro said that last year’s club, in terms of position Page Five players, was pretty close to what he’s got right now. The difference, though, has been the pitching. Last year the Braves were rock solid in terms of starting pitching, with 35 starts (out of 44 games) in which his starter gave him six innings. In 25 games a year ago, the starter went at least seven. Fans Guide to How much things change over the course of one year. Attending the All This year the Braves have had one pitcher twice pitch Stars Page Six into the seventh. The bullpen has been taxed and the club has not been winning. The Braves find themselves dead last in team earned-run average, entering last weekend’s round of games with a combined ERA of 4.30, nearly a full run behind the ninth-place team. “If our Inside the Game: pitching was near where it was last year, we’d have at least five more wins. That might not put us in the play- Pitching Inside offs, but we’d be in the thick of things,” Shapiro said. Ready To Bust-A-Move Page Seven To be fair, the hitting hasn’t exactly been that great either. The Braves are dead last in team batting average (.207), have hit the fewest home runs (four), and scored 3 21 fewer runs than the next-to-last team in that category. MATTHEW BURKE Injuries and roster changes have been a huge reason for the team’s woes.

    2021 swb railriders 2021 swb railriders triple-a information On February 12, 2021, Major League Baseball announced its new plan for affiliated baseball, with 120 Minor League clubs officially agreeing to join the new Professional Development League (PDL). 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. The long-time Triple-A structure of the International and Pacific Coast Leagues have been replaced by Triple-A East and Triple-A West. Triple-A East consists on 20 teams; all 14 from the International League, plus teams moving from the Pacific Coast League, the Southern League and the independent Atlantic League. Triple-A West is comprised of nine Pacific Coast League teams and one addition from the Atlantic League. These changes were made to help reduce travel and allow Major League teams to have their affiliates, in most cases, within 200 miles of the parent club (or play at their Spring Training facilities). triple-a clubs & affiliates midwest northeast southeast e Columbus (Cleveland Indians) Buffalo (Toronto Blue Jays) Charlotte (Chicago White Sox) Indianapolis (Pittsburgh Pirates) Lehigh Valley (Philadelphia Phillies) Durham (Tampa Bay Rays) a Iowa (Chicago Cubs) Rochester (Washington Nationals) Gwinnett (Atlanta Braves) s Louisville (Cincinnati Reds) Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre (New York Yankees) Jacksonville (Miami Marlins) Omaha (Kansas City Royals) Syracuse (New York Mets) Memphis (St.
