"The Yankees have added a new farm club this year at Greensboro, North Carolina in the Western Carolinas League. In addition, the AA club has moved from West Haven, Connecticut to Nashville, Tennessee.
That brings the total number of Yankee farm clubs to six for 1980. Last year, all five clubs won regular season titles, with only Ft. Lauderdale failing to win a postseason playoff."

NEW MANAGERS ON YANKEE FARMS

Former San Francisco Giants manager Joe Altobelli replaces new Yankee General Manager Gene Michael as the skipper at Columbus. Bob Schaefer, who previously coached at Ledyard (Connecticut) High School and in the Cape Cod League will manager the new Greensboro club.
Yet to be named is the new manager at Paintsville, who will take over for Bill Livesey, now the Yankees Director of Player Development. Carl 'Stump' Merrill will manage Nashville, Doug Holmquist returns at Ft. Lauderdale and Art Mazmanian is back at Oneonta."
