In case you've been wondering why there hasn't been a post on the blog in a while, we've been busy recruiting players that have been released out of spring training. There is about one more week in MLB spring training and approximately 30-40 players per day have been getting released. The process includes checking references, getting scouting reports, and convincing players that your league, team, and ballpark are the best to help them continue their professional career. It is a hectic process, but I have a good feeling about at least 4-5 prospects that I have contacted including a couple starting pitchers, a closer, a shortstop, and maybe even some local Northern Michigan talent.
Keep checking the blog of the next couple of weeks as it will take us a while to get contracts out, signed, and returned even after we receive verbal commitments.

Thanks for taking the time to update us loyal blog readers. Keep up the good work and find that starting shortstop. Thanks again Jason.
Jason what resources do you have to determine players that have been released from MLBB and minor league camps, especially minor league camps? Is there is a web site for this someplace?
When players get released their names and contact information gets e-mailed out to all other MLB clubs as well as all independent organizations.
One place you can check out minor league transactions is on Baseball America, but they only update once every week or two.
