Word has just come in from the World Baseball Association. They have said they cannot support a league any longer. The plan from today is going to be to merge 4 teams into the National Basebaill League. The teams that are going to be moved into the NBL are going to be the Edmonton Oilers, Winnipeg Jets, Minnesota North Stars, and this years champion Quebec Nordiques.

How is this going to affect the NBL is a question that many people are asking today. My personal take on this is I honestly don't think much will change much. A few years ago if you had asked me this question I would say that the quality of teams in the WBL would hurt the NABL. But in the last few years the WBL has shown that it can put on the same quality of games as the longer running NABL. Even the WBL's single season home run record is higher than the elder league! Next year should be an interesting year for everyone interested in baseball... See you on the Diamond next year!!!
