What Are the Sod Poodles Teasing? Amarillo Has Theories

It's been one heck of a season for our Amarillo Sod Poodles. It all culminated in becoming the Texas League Champions for the third time in their short history. They're quickly becoming Minor League Baseball royalty.

If you're a sports fan, you know how hard it is to get to the top, but it's even harder to stay at the top. Especially in Minor League Baseball, where you have no control over your roster. Now that we're in the offseason, the Soddies are up to something.

What's Coming For The Sod Poodles

Recently, the Sod Poodles started teasing something on social media, and it's got Amarillo making a ton of guesses as to what's coming. The announcement appears to be set for October 27, and whatever it is, people are anticipating what it could be.

One of the most popular guesses was Banana Ball coming back to Amarillo, and ironically that manifested itself as they announced it'll be back at HODGETOWN on May 14th and 15th. However, that wasn't the announcement, as it came before October 27.

What Is Amarillo Guessing

This has been a lot of fun to watch and follow. As of the writing of this post, there have been 192 comments left, and some of the guesses have been a lot of fun to think about. One that was mentioned numerous times is a change from being an AA team to a AAA team, which would be a lot of fun since we'd be seeing prospects on the brink of the majors.

Other guesses that have been really popular? 7 Brew Coffee coming to HODGETOWN has been mentioned numerous times. Another popular guess has been a new alternate identity to replace or add to the Calf Fries. Several people have thrown out the guess out there that the Soddies are changing colors, which is an interesting theory, but probably unlikely. Another one mentioned several times was a concert coming, but I feel like this is baseball related.

Off The Wall Guesses

One person mentioned a retractable roof so we don't get blasted by sandstorms. I got a good laugh out of that one, so did the Soddies. Another guess I saw twice was cosmic baseball, which would honestly be really cool. If you haven't seen it, Google it; it's worth it.

The one that really made me say, huh, that's interesting, was a few people saying we're getting a permanent Banana Ball team in Amarillo. While very far-fetched, it is something that could happen. It's highly unlikely that's it, though. So we sit and wait with everyone else until October 27!
