The conversation would sound something like this, "I will stand beside my MiLB bretheren all the way.....hang on the phone is ringing.....good luck guys, I am headed to San Francisco!"

AAA-->MLB fill in assignments are not within the contract with minor league baseball and have nothing to do with the AMLU. So how would working a MLB assignment have anything to do with the strike whatsoever? Not at all a part of the labor dispute.
