Title: What are they doing?
Post by: OregonStrosFan on April 30, 2010, 10:22:59 am

So what happens with the kids that were signed last year but didn't make it to full season ball this year?  Extended Spring Training?  What are they doing, drills all day?  Scrimmages?  Just curious.

Extended yes.  They play games against the other orgs extended teams as well.  It's a time for teaching...

Extended Spring involves a monotonous routine of practices and then playing scrimmage games against other teams in the area.  By the time they start Short Season ball, they are anxious to begin playing games that do count.
