    I'm incredibly jealous

    I never thought I'd be jealous of anything belonging or having to do with the Los Angeles Angels of whatever-they're-calling-themselves this year, but I must admit this is very cool.

    The Mobile BayBears were, for ten years, 2007-2016, the Double A minor league affiliate of the Arizona Diamondbacks. In 2017, the Diamondbacks moved their franchise to Jackson, Tennessee to become the Jackson Generals, and the BayBears were taken over by the Angels.

    Late last year it was announced that the Angels Double A franchise was moving to Madison, Alabama, a/k/a "Rocket City", in 2020 and a naming contest has just resulted in a re-branding of the team as...The Rocket City Trash Pandas.







    If the Diamondbacks had only stayed in Mobile for a couple more years, we would be getting the Trash Pandas as a minor league affiliate.
