I know that minor league teams love to play up the names.. But New Orleans Baby Cakes? Anyways.. good luck tonight A-Mo!

The Mariners’ most advanced pitching prospect in the organization is inching closer to the big leagues. Right-hander Andrew Moore, who is rated just behind right-hander Nick Neidert in most organizational prospect rankings, will make his Class AAA debut at Cheney Stadium on Tuesday night vs. the New Orleans Baby Cakes.

The Baby Cakes is probably in reference to a Mardi Gras tradition of a King Cake that has a tiny baby doll baked into it. Not sure of all the details but whoever finds the baby has to buy the cakes the next year.

Good luck A-Mo!

You, sir, would be CORRECT! Lot's of talk down here in NOLA as to why not just call themselves King Cakes while keeping the baby as the mascot. Nobody really calls them Baby Cakes...just King. They even have King Cake flavored vodka during Mardi Gras.
