Major changes ahead for Minor League Baseball – Ep. 128

As fans know, there was no Minor League (or college) baseball this past season.  To make things more challenging MLB has made the biggest changes in MiLB in nearly 60 years.  The farm systems developed by Branch Rickey in the 1930’s are nearly unrecognizable today. 

There are many notable Minor League Baseball players like Michael Jordan and Tim Tebow (who will try again this season to be a NY Met). What kind of future does Minor League baseball have in the U.S.?  Should MLB consider supplying college teams with wood bats?  We’re fans of Minor League baseball in general yet aware that there are many more entertainment options that put the future of MiLB in jeopardy.
