On January 24, deep in the miasma of The Lockout, Akeem Bostick signed with the Kansas City Monarchs of the American Association. Akeem threw an inning as a Met and was plenty excited about it. [tweet]https://twitter.com/ab10thephenom/status/1420879952199749639[/tweet]

The Kansas City Monarchs? There's a minor league team in Kansas City?

Wikipedia description: The Kansas City Monarchs are a professional baseball team based in Kansas City, Kansas. Formerly known as the Kansas City T-Bones, they are members of the American Association of Professional Baseball; which, in 2020, became designated as a Major League Baseball partner league. They have played their home games at Legends Field (formerly CommunityAmerica Ballpark) since 2003, when the team began as a member of the Northern League. In 2011, the team joined the modern American Association. In 2018, the T-Bones won their first-ever American Association championship by defeating the St. Paul Saints. While named the T-Bones, the team's mascot was named Sizzle. On January 21, 2021, the team announced a partnership with the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum and a rebranding to the Kansas City Monarchs, one of the founding teams of that league. The Monarchs defeated the Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks in the 2021 American Association championship, claiming the franchise's third title. Ty Kelly joined their ranks briefly. https://monarchsbaseball.com/
