    The Reds really blew it if this is true. Chattanooga has been great to them and AT&T field is one of the nicest fields in the Southern league. :thumbdown
    Disagree on the AT&T field being one of the nicest in the Southern League. its a miserably hot place to watch a game during the summer; especially on afternoon games. The stadium faces almost due west and there isn't a lick of shade in the entire ball park.

    It's no more semantics than the difference between "Low A" and "High A." It's about the quality of competition. The short-season leagues exist primarily to give just-drafted players a place to ease into pro ball, and if a club has both a Short-Season A and a Rookie League team, its more advanced draftees go to the former. The Reds, meanwhile, have to decide whether its more advanced draftees have to be thrown straight into the fire of a full-season club or go beat up on inferior competition at Billings.
