Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Highlanders Rebrand for 2027

The New York Yankees' Triple-A affiliate has officially rebranded as the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Highlanders ahead of the 2027 season. This name change honors the New York Highlanders from 1903 to 1912. Just like the Highlanders became the Yankees, today's Highlanders are on the path to becoming tomorrow's Bronx Bombers. Elmer Rodriguez and Carlos Lagrange are set to lead the pitching staff.

A tremendous move for the franchise, connecting past and future!
