Assessment comments
The following comments were left by the assessors: (edit ° history ° watch ° refresh) While there is some overlap between the Toro and Sidewinder artciles, I don't believe that merging them is the solution. Even though the Sidewinders claim that their lineage goes back to the Toros, the fact of the matter is that they are two distinct entities. The Toros were Tucson's baseball, yet the city never took to the Sidewinders. The Toros played at Hi-C, and the Sidewinders played at TEP. The Toros were (mostly) the Astros' PCL team, but the Sidewinders were always the D-Backs' PCL team. Ask yourself, if these teams are one and the same, why was the decision made to terminate the Toros after almost 30 years and begin new with the Sidewinders? |

[edit] Merge with Tucson Toros?
I propose that we merge Tucson Toros into this article, in a format similar to Iowa Cubs. The two articles have a significant amount of overlap, since they describe the same team before and after a re-naming. We should streamline them into one article to avoid covering the same ground twice, taking care to retain enough of the visual content from the Toros article (pics, logos) to ensure that we document the former identity.
