Well, forget what I heard...

The Diamondbacks are going to be in Visalia.

VISALIA, CA - The Visalia Oaks are pleased to announce the signing of a Player Development Contract with the Arizona Diamondbacks.

Arizona's best prospects will don Oaks uniforms for the 2007 and 2008 baseball seasons.
...
"The Oaks are very happy to have the Diamondbacks as our new affiliate," said General Manager Jon Peterson, "they are a class organization with a farm system loaded with prospects who can put a winning team here in Visalia. Oaks fans, many of whom are also Giants or Dodgers fans will be able to see their team's future stars create NL West rivalries here in the California League."


That leaves the High Desert Mavericks or the Lancaster JetHawks as the only High-A teams without an affiliate.

It has been stated elsewhere that Lancaster used to be the Cal League affiliate of the Mariners. This should be final shortly.
