How does an MLB team complement the state’s existing minor-league team?

Utah wouldn’t be the first MLB market to host an MiLB team successfully. The following teams have Triple-A affiliates within 45 miles of the MLB team:

• Minnesota Twins & St. Paul Saints
• Houston Astros & Sugarland Space Cowboys
• Atlanta Braves & Gwinnett Stripers
• Seattle Mariners & Tacoma Rainiers
• Boston Red Sox & Worcester Red Sox
