The Arizona Fall League has one week done and that means it’s time to check in on the Mesa Solar Sox.
The Solar Sox, in case you missed last week’s introduction, are the Cubs’ affiliate in the Arizona Fall League. The AFL is a place for prospects to get in more work and instruction after the regular minor-league season under the watchful eye of the teams themselves, as opposed to Winter Ball where they could be playing for anyone. The Solar Sox play at the Cubs’ Spring Training home of Sloan Park and other than the Cubs, the team features prospects from the Athletics, Yankees, Rays and Marlins this season.
