Congrats to the Baysox
The Akron Aeros lost the nightcap of that doubleheader with Altoona, 1-0, securing the Eastern League Southern Division for Bowie, which will have home-field advantage in the best-of-five first playoff round that starts next week.
The Baysox, who lost 9-3 to Trenton and had to wait out the Akron twinbill to celebrate the clinching, reached the playoffs for the first time since 1997 and won the division title for the first time in team history.
Tickets to all potential playoff games at Prince Georges Stadium are available on the Baysox Web site.

Congrats to the Baysox, as hopefully some of the success they are having now, will go along way to future success throughout the minors and hopefully majors for some of these young men.
Pete, what is your take on Liz? I think that as a reliever, he could be lights out. He has enough pitches that if he pitches 1-2 innings, he can get batters out. I am not saying closer, but a very solid 7th inning guy. What's your take and what are you hearing from the O's on whether he is a SP or reliever?

And so the great minor league fire sale begins for the O's.
