Here’s the latest on the Long Island Ducks:
- Trevor Bauer reportedly signed with the Ducks for the Atlantic League opener in April 2026, signaling a high-profile addition for the team and a potential boost in attention and pitching depth. This aligns with coverage noting Bauer’s return to independent baseball and his scheduled opening-night start.[1][3]
- In January 2026, there were reports that REV Entertainment (the Texas Rangers’ group) acquired the Ducks, with founder Frank Boulton stepping in as adviser. This could influence team operations and branding in the near term.[2]
- The Ducks’ official site and affiliated outlets continued to publish season-related news in early 2026, including post-season honors for Ducks players from the 2025 season and other roster notes.[3][7]
If you’d like, I can pull more specifics (dates, game logs, or rosters) or summarize how Bauer’s presence might affect opening-night attendance and media coverage.
