Owners of the summer collegiate West Coast League expansion franchise in Yakima (WA) have launched a name-the-team contest. The team will play at Yakima County Stadium beginning in 2014 — replacing the Single-A Yakima Bears (Northwest League), which relocated to a new ballpark in Hillsboro (OR) and became the Hillsboro Hops.

Hi guys – the pages are populated with information now. We are moving forward with the launch later this week. Looking forward to the name submissions!
You sneaky, sneaky man!
@ Been Around,
Wasn’t trying to be sneaky (this time). Thought it was active and public.

Might look better if they’d waited to launch the site until they had information. Click on any of the info boxes and they’re all blank. Interesting concept.
The blanks will be filled in shortly. There was no announcement made about the site, and it wasn’t meant to be live and public yet. We just stumbled across it and innocently shared the news. Oops.

Ha, I wonder if that means I was the first one to suggest some team names. Go Springs!
