In ordinary weeks for the last couple of seasons, minor league teams have been playing six-game series from Tuesday to Sunday in one city, with Mondays off, before heading elsewhere. An extended Fourth of July weekend was too good for the minors to pass up, though, so last Monday, teams didn’t have the day off and they zipped from one place to the next for Independence Day and beyond.
What this means for our typical weekly minor league roundup on Camden Chat is that it’s actually been two weeks since we’ve checked in on the teams in a more big picture way than just what happened in the previous day’s games.
