Could this be a reflection of the future of the Major League clubs they are affiliated with? I notice, for example, that neither the Royals nor Tigers are represented here. I suspect that it does not bode well for these clubs.

Hey, at least the P-Nats get mentioned. Which (hopefully) bodes well for the MLB Nats at SOME point in the future...
