Data source is entirely from Wikipedia and current as of November, 2023.

In 2021, Major League Baseball reorganized its affliated minor leagues, creating for that year only, four leagues temporarily known as Triple-A, Double-A, High-A, and Low-A. For brevity in the listings here, teams in those 2021 leagues are included in their 2022 leagues. (See Minor League Baseball’s 2021 Realignment)
