Officially in the (High) Desert

SBsun.com reports this morning:

Mariners head to High Desert

The Mavericks signed with the Mariners, after the Royals left Adelanto after two seasons and got a high Single-A affiliate in the Carolina League.

"We're ecstatic," new Mavericks Vice President/General Manager Derrel Ebert said. "They're in the AL West, and they're a proven winner at this level."

The 66ers won the 2006 Cal League championship and two in the last four years as a Mariners affiliate.

"To be completely honest, we had our eyes set on Seattle," Ebert said. "The Royals made it clear they simply wanted to be back in the Carolina League."


There wasn't anything on the Maverick web site or at the Victorville Daily Press. If there is, I'll get a link and some excerpts.
