Rebuilding Pioneer League Teams Welcome New Managers
The Pioneer League sees a manager turnover with only two holdovers. Great Falls Dodgers led by Joe Vavra eye a third straight title while Los Angeles Dodgers farm system adds young hurlers like Pedro Martinez and twins Mike and Mark Mimbs to bolster an evolving lineup. Helena Brewers bring Gary Calhoun as new skipper and plan to manufacture runs with speed. Billings Mustangs highlight lefty power and continued Reds affiliation talks as Medicine Hat Blue Jays rely on rookie Iorg and a mix of returning players to build a winner.
