Pittsburg (CA) Team on Deck Monday Night
Filed under League & Franchise, Market & Location
How is this considered independent ball? These are all city park fields… Used for men’s leagues… These are not stadiums. The pacific association is a joke. And so is San Rafael for creating the sonoma team to be it’s “rival” they have the same owner!
It’s early April and the Pacific Association is still tying to figure out who will makeup the 2014 season? What has this league been up to since their 2013 season ended in late August. The only viable and legit team is the San Rafael Pacifics. One thing the Pacific Association needs to be careful of is burning markets like all of the other failed independent leagues have done on the west coast. Nonetheless I wish them luck but every season it seems like they’re scrambling to fill out a list of teams one or two months before the season.
