AZL Brewers look like Early Favorite
For people who are unfamiliar with the Arizona League, it can sometimes be a little unfair. But when you draft like the Milwaukee Brewers did in 2014, nobody in Maryvale(or Wisconsin) will complain. With the AZL Brewers set to open on June 20th, they recently assigned 9 of their recent draft picks to the AZL. Below you can find a look at all 9; I will go in order of how they were drafted.
The Brewers orginization sent picks their CA, 2nd, 4th, 6th, 27th, 30th, 33rd, 34th, & 35th round picks. The Arizona league's toughest foe is the heat. Games start at 7 PM but, most of the time Temps are still in the 100's. Players need to prepare for the hot weather but, if they can adapt it can be a hitters league.
***The players listed below will be joined by a composite of 1st, 2nd & 3rd year players. No player with more than 3 years expierience may play in the AZL, unless on a rehab assignment or the player is an international signing. Often times Internationl signings will join the AZL on their way to other minor leagues.
