This season has been incredible and I know you agree with me in hoping it just keeps getting better and better. I can’t wait to see where this team goes! Have you ever thought about where these players start out? What it takes to make it to the Major League? Athletics players that are drafted out of High School or brought in from international locations usually start out in the AZ League. Often called “fire league” or “rookie league,” the AZL season starts in the summer shortly after the draft. Games are at 7pm because the AZ summer temperatures are usually triple-digit. Some of the players have not even turned 18 years old yet.
