Where do MLB players live during spring training?

I just saw a Lamborghini going down Park View Place headed toward Surprise Stadium.

A lot of the players stay in hotels. The Windmill Suites near Bell and RH Johnson in Surprise is usually teeming with ball players.

I wouldn't be surprised if a few own homes. Good investment. [mod cut-- off topic]

The rich ones own homes or rent nice places. The farm kids stay all over... with roomies (I had one or two in the past) and there are also sponsor families. My co-worker and his wife are huge baseball fans and rent space only to ballplayers for cheap, hoping to help a future MLB player. Maybe they'll get some World Series tickets down the road.

Many of our players from Milwaukee live in Arizona throughout the whole off-season...I can name a few off-hand that I know about...Corey Hart, Bill Hall, JJ Hardy, Eric Gagne, Derrick Turnbow. Cant speak for other teams but I would bet that teams that play in the mid-west and have thier off-season in the winter time probably have homes in Arizona and Florida so they are not forced to stay in the house all day...especially if they have Spring Training there also.

I would imagine that each team makes its own arrangements, so they don't all stay in the same place. And, lots of players have homes here in the Valley.

Well that's nice
How does one get to be a sponsor family?

This is an old thread that got revived by a new poster. Because the OP mentioned a car he saw going into Surprise ballpark, the thread had gone off on discussions of where those cars can be seen all over the Valley. But, high priced cars in the Valley are not the topic of the thread. That's a fine subject for another thread.

Spring training season has been great, and Opening Day is almost here!
