The annual Frontier League Tryout Camp and Draft will be held on Monday, April 30 and Tuesday, May 1 at CONSOL Energy Park in Washington, Pennsylvania, home of the Washington Wild Things.
All 14 Frontier League teams will be represented at the workouts, and Major League Baseball scouts have been in attendance each of the past seven years. Walk-up registration will begin at 8:00 AM on April 30.
The workouts officially begin at 9:00 AM on April 30 and will feature a 60-yard dash, fielding and throwing drills for infielders, outfielders, and catchers, and batting practice for position players while pitchers will throw 15-20 pitch bullpens. Following the first day, the field managers will post a list of players invited back for inter-squad games on May 1. At the conclusion of the games, action will break for 30 minutes as clubs evaluate the talent and prepare for the draft.
An average of 35 players have been drafted and signed to spring training contracts over the past seven years. Over 340 players participated in the 2011 Tryout Camp in Florence, Kentucky, with 124 invited back for the second day. Each year, at least one tryout camp participant has appeared in the Frontier League's All-Star Game. Several draftees have gone on to be signed by Major League Baseball organizations, including RHP Chris Jakubauskas who appeared in 69 MLB games (including 15 starts) over the past three seasons.
