The Astros High A affiliate in the Carolina League relocating from its temporary home in Buies Creek will be known as the Fayetteville Woodpeckers. I knew they wouldn’t choose the name of Generals that was previously used in Fayetteville, but Woodpeckers isn’t a bad choice, although some of the nicknames from there aren’t all that appealing. And I am glad that they are referencing Fayetteville in the name, unlike the last team in Fayetteville, the Cape Fear Crocs.
