Midland RockHounds News Release


Darren Rovell of CNBC's Sports Biz has posted a 64 team bracket featuring the top logos in minor league baseball. Starting on Friday and running through Saturday morning at 9:00 AM we are asking that you vote for the RockHounds over the Visalia Oaks.

Starting this past Monday, Rovell has posted five new matchups a day to decide which logo will move on to the next round. The RockHounds logo was unveiled in 1998, prior to the new affiliation with the Oakland A's.

Thanks to some serious offseason movement that saw Oakland pare down its big-league roster by sending Dan Haren to Arizona, Nick Swisher to Chicago and Mark Kotsay to Atlanta, the A's are swimming in top-notch Minor League talent. Much of the spring may seem like a meet-and greet, but there's no question Oakland's organization has gone from closer to the bottom among Major League Baseball to near the top.
