From Ballpark Digest listing why Sarasota works for them:
"Second, the Orioles would likely not field a Florida State League team in Fort Myers because of territorial concerns; they could assume control of the Sarasota Reds and begin play next season."
That would mean a swap of franchises and Reds would have Frederick Keys.
I'm surprised to hear the Orioles are looking to move to Florida. They've got all of their affiliates in their geographic region, which always struck me as smart business.
I'm not a system player. I am a system.
