The Memphis Redbirds broke camp with the big leaguers on Thursday and headed north for an exhibition at AutoZone Park, and the rest of the system stayed in Jupiter for a camp day.
Editors' Note: Players, and especially pitchers, often play for multiple different spring training "farm teams" during these back field contests, depending on throw days, rest, and who management wants to see on a given day. Therefore, just because a player is on the field for Memphis, it doesn't mean he'll start the year there.
