The minor leagues are almost back! Most levels of the farm open their season on Tuesday, marking their first games since 2019.
That includes the Stockton Ports, who moved down from High-A to Low-A this year but remain an Oakland A’s affiliate. The Triple-A Las Vegas Aviators and High-A Lansing Lugnuts already announced their projected 2021 rosters last week, and the Ports followed suit on Saturday.
There are 30 players on the Ports roster, and they’ll be led by new manager Rico Brogna, with former Athletics hurler Chris Smith as pitching coach.
