Buzz: AAA Syracuse Stadium Changes
As previously mentioned on MetsBlog, there is increased buzz from Syracuse that suggests the Mets will move their Triple-A affiliate from New Orleans to Syracuse at the end of the next season.
According to Syracuse’s ABC Affiliate, WSYR, Syracuse Chiefs management, in an increased effort to lure a new team, have begun the transition from Astro Turf to natural grass.
The Chiefs, who’s contract with the Blue Jays is up at the end of next season, will also alter the dimensions of Alliance Bank Stadium, which reportedly will be very similar to the Mets new ballpark, Citi Field.
…frankly i’d love the Mets to move from nola to syracuse…their triple-a affiliate would be back in the International League where they belong…also for selfish reasons as i would get to see them play the new phillies triple-a affiliate, the Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs…
