Ottawa’s new Double-A baseball team has a new name. Ottawa’s return to the Can-Am league will be with the Ottawa Champions. Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson joined league commissioner Miles Wolff to make the announcement. The Capital has had a troubled past when it comes to the minor leagues. The Ottawa Lynx, The Rapidz and Fat Cats all struck out. Wolff is optimistic this time around. The city has pledged $1.2 million in renovations to the ballpark. The Can-Am league has signed a 10-year lease. The Ottawa Champions are now taking suggestions for a team logo. The team will play ball in the spring of 2015.
