The Colorado Rockies’ class A affiliate in the South Atlantic League continues to be the classic (and awesomely-logoed) Asheville Tourists.
More From Minors
Over the last few years, the Colorado Rockies have made some changes in half of their minor league affiliates (Boise, New Britain, and Albuquerque) and have brought on relatively new affiliates elsewhere (Grand Junction). And yet the most consistent piece down on the farm has been in Asheville, North Carolina, and the South Atlantic League. The Asheville Tourists have been with the Rockies since 1994 — the very first year they had a Class A team.
