Earlier this week, the Mariners made a few changes to their minor league set up. With their contract expiring, the Generals have moved on from the M’s to complete a four year deal with the Arizona Diamondbacks.
During the past ten seasons, the Generals have made the Division Championship series four times, losing twice. The former year they won the division series (2012), the Generals went on to lose the Southern League Championship.
This season is the later year that they won the division series. They would go on to win the Southern League Championship. It was the first time the Generals won the SL title since 2000 when they were in the Chicago Cubs organization.
