Default A Minor League Team Would be Great!

This is a wonderful idea! I have always enjoyed minor leagues more than their big brothers. The players are accessible, ticket prices affordable and the fans more involved. To work, it would need to be sited so you can get there by golf cart.

Having a minor league team does not preclude having major league spring training here. The Villages are laid out so that the main arteries; Buena Vista, Morse, El Camino Real, 466, 466A etc. together with the boundary roads - SR42, SR44, US 301 and US 441/27 carry the traffic so that it does not impinge on the neighborhoods.

Sign me up for two season tickets!
