The 2nd annual Arizona Draft Prospect Classic takes place at the Mariners & Padres Spring Training Complex in Peoria, AZ. The event will consist of 16 of the best teams in the country. The goal of this event is to provide a venue for players that are already committed or highly likely to be drafted to play against other high caliber players to prepare for college/minor leagues. This is a wood bat, competitive event which includes a 4-game guarantee. The 16 teams will compete in a round robin pool play format. The four pool winners will advance to a 4 team playoff on Sunday. All other teams will play a consolation game Sunday.
The organizers of the Arizona Fall Classic have created this exclusive fall event to highlight potential draft prospects on the West Coast. The Four Corner Scouts Association will be supporting and scouting this event. Baseball Northwest is proud to exclusively represent the Northwest in the event.
Baseball Northwest will select top players from the region to attend this event, by evaluation throughout the spring season, our summer Prospect Evaluation Camps, at our Northwest Championships in August, and by recommendation by college coaches and professional scouts. Our goal is to bring some of the best draft prospects from our region to get additional exposure to MLB scouts.
