The next destination

Some of this year's Timber Rattlers will be heading out to High Desert in the California League for 2009. Seattle has re-signed with the Mavericks.
The Mavericks announced in a press release on Wednesday that the Mariners renewed their player development contract, keeping them with the franchise for two more seasons.

“Renewing the contract with Seattle will allow the Mavericks to have more continuity next season since we’ll get a lot of the players back here next year,” said Mavs GM Tim Altier in a press release. “We won’t have to field a whole new team like we did after 2004 and 2006. And since we lost a few of our best players to injury last season, getting some of them back could mean more wins in ’09.”

High Desert, which has been affiliated with the Mariners over the last two seasons, has gone a combined 112-168 during that time.
