Winning, Losing and Standing Alone

Going into Saturday’s game at Daytona there were a couple interesting notes in the Florida State League standings…As follows….

• Daytona has the longest winning streak among full-season minor league teams (12)
• St. Lucie has the longest losing streak among full-season minor league teams (10)
• The two streaks are the only double-digit streaks in the minors
• Other runs of note include:

Triple-A Durham: 9 Wins

Triple-A Louisville: 9 Wins

Triple-A Syracuse: 9 Losses (ended Friday night)

Low-A Dayton: 9 Losses

Just found it funny that both the longest winning and losing streaks were in one league.  Also interesting that they are the only double-figure streaks active.

Another note – Bradenton entered Saturday at 18-15 and with the only winning record in the FSL South.  The division is the only one in full-season minor league baseball that can only boast one team over .500.  After finishing in Daytona the Marauders host Brevard County for four.  From there on out Bradenton hosts only division opponents until the end of the year.

Just some food for thought…

Til next time…
