Owners agreed wholeheartedly to make the Winter Meetings an annual part of the Arizona League. For now, the meeting will be held in the town/city that wins the previous Cactus Champions Cup (though some have vowed to boycott if that's ever Jerome)...
Owners also voted to make the annual amateur player draft the final component of the Winter Meetings. "We're all together. We might as well pick the new guys," Commissioner Victory said...
Here's how the 1904 turned out:
For the third year in a row, the Tucson Saguaros have the first pick. For the third year, they go with a pitcher. They just can't seem to get that rotation together ... A player by the name of Bull Durham goes late to Jerome... Other than that, I frankly don't recognize that many names. But there is a prospect that nearly everyone is familiar with who will be part of the 1905 draft...
