Florida State League Preview

Your incomplete guide to the Florida State League.  The Florida State League is made up of twelve teams. They are divided into two divisions: the North and the South. There are six teams in each division.

Players listed are on rosters as of yesterday morning, as found at milb.com.  ”Notables” is not a listing of top prospects, but rather a listing of names that rang a bell with me.
