The New York Yankees have extended their player development contract with the city of Scranton to keep the Scranton Wilkes-Barre RailRiders in town for at least four more seasons after this one. The maximum amount of years you can sign these contracts for is four years so you can see the Yankees are serious about keeping their Triple-A affiliate close to home. The Yankees Triple-A players have called Scranton home since the 2007 season after spending a long time in Columbus before being 90 minutes away from the Bronx.
After the renovations at PNC Field and such you had to think this is nothing more than a formality but it's still good that it got done anyway.
