Holy Ibañez, y’all, I did not realize how long it has been since we did a minor league preview series until I started Googling around to find the last one we did to use as a template and realized Kyle Lewis was the centerpiece of the writeup. We are so, so happy to have the minor leagues back after a long layoff and to bring you in-depth coverage of Seattle’s minor league teams, which will look a little different this year. As you may have noticed from the title, this year we’re kicking off the MiLB preview series with Modesto, which is now the A-ball affiliate of the Mariners, a title (too) briefly held previously by the West Virginia Power (RIP Toastman), and the Clinton LumberKings for a good long while before that.
