  4. Dunedin Blue Jays - 37-32 : won division 1st half, 1-3 and in last place for 2nd half
  5. Buffalo Bisons - 39-36 : 7 out of first, but just 1 game out of a wild card slot

Best minor league name in a long time: Damien Magnifico who is starting for Brevard County against the D-Jays tonight.  The long walk to the mound accompanied by...I'm just a poor boy from a poor family.

Tough night for Romero. He walked 5, gave up 6 hits, in 3.1 innings.

I have to disagree with your best minor league name Mike.  I'm partial to Rock Shoulders in Kane County (Cubs affiliate).

You win, LF.  A Magnifico vs. Shoulders matchup would be epic.
