Another minor league season comes to an end. It has not been one that will be remembered fondly. Only Vancouver made the playoffs. The other teams were lackluster and it required an injection of new faces at the trade deadline to create some interest in the last two months. Pitchers were falling like flies with most of the best pitching prospects needing Tommy John surgery. The best hitting prospect coming into the season missed time with a drugs ban. And yet the players who did get the call to the major league generally performed decently. And that is the minor leagues, the win/loss record doesn't matter, can you get one or two players a year to become part of your major league team? Fittingly Buffalo lost their last game.
