South America South

Buenos Aires Dorado, 366-282, .565
On the field: Consistent winner, division champ in 3 of 4 seasons but yet to reach Americas Cup finals having been eliminated by Cali in their last 2 playoff appearances.
Top Player in Team History: 2B Israel Vacas. 4 year starter and #3 hitter, Vacas has 104 career homers and is a 3-time All-Star.
Finances: In excellent shape. Lost about $13 million last year but will be profitable this season.
2003 Record: 98-64, 1st
Minor League System: 30th, SP William Clayton, 24 (9-4, 3.38, 144 K in 128 IP in AAA).

Sao Paulo Anacondas, 327-321, .505
On the field: Made the leap from 74 wins to 91 between 2001 and 2002 but are still behind Buenos Aires in the pecking order and are still seeking first playoff appearance.
Top Player in Team History: SS Juan Zaragoza. Another power hitting SS, Zaragoza has averaged over 36 homers over the first 4 years and has 2 30/30 seasons. Notoriously known as a difficult individual, Juan was dealt to DC at the trade deadline this year.
Finances: They’ve cut payroll quite a bit over last year so they are in good shape heading into next year.
2003 Record: 86-76, 3rd
Minor League System: 29th, SP Larry Clinger, 19 (’03 1st Rounder: 14-6, 3.69 ERA at A level).

Lima Toros, 293-355, .452
On the field: Underacheiving group for 3 seasons but was one of the most improved clubs this year, improving 32 games but still finishing 3 games out of the Wild Card.
Top Player in Team History: 2B Garland “Catfish” Danforth. Underrated player in my opinion. Power hitter (33 HR per year), with low average but high OBP as he is the all-time leader in walks. Excellent fielder as well.
Finances: Success comes with a price tag but the Toros are still operating within their means for the most part.
2003 Record: 89-73, 3rd
Minor League System: 19th, LF Roberto Montoya, 25 (highly touted prospect, finished rookie season with .294 average, 15 HR, and 85 RBI).

Santiago Saints, 289-364, .438
On the field: Won the division in 2001 but blew it up afterwards and have racked up 108 and 111 losses in the past 2 seasons.
Top Player in Team History: Same as Jacksonville, 1B/3B Richard Mason. In his 2 seasons in Santiago, Mason averaged 40 HR and 121 RBI.
Finances: No team is in better shape. Look for them to be extremely active in the offseason
2003 Record: 51-111, 5th
Minor League System: 4th, LF Montana Billings, 23 (#2 overall pick in ’02: .297, 20, 80 in full season at AAA)

Rio de Janeiro Cariocas, 276-372, .426
On the field: Finished 83-69 in Year 1 but it was downhill from there. They have lost exactly 100 games the past 2 seasons.
Top Player in Team History: Not much to choose from but if I was forced to pick a standout at gunpoint I would go with SP Isidro Sanchez, 29-38 career record with a decent 3.47 ERA.
Finances: They raised salary over $20 million and still lost 100 games. As you can imagine they will lose money this year after being in the black for the 1st 3 years.
2003 Record: 62-100, 4th
Minor League System: 8th, C Donald Wiley, 20 ( #7 overall pick in ’02, has hit a paltry .210 in 2 seasons at Single A. Can you say, bust?)
