Tracking new Minor League affiliates for '21

After Minor League Baseball clubs were formally invited to join MLB's new Professional Development League in December, Major League Baseball announced in February that all 120 clubs that were extended invitations to become PDL license holders have officially agreed to accept.

The new model of Minor League Baseball, detailed here, features several notable changes, including salary increases, restructured leagues, upgraded facilities and reduced in-season travel.

With the season starting this week, here is a team-by-team list of the 2021 Minor League affiliations:
