A problem exists with the independent minor league baseball community.
The problem is that since the independent leagues do not have affiliations with “regular” minor league baseball teams (those affiliated with Major League organizations), information about the independent baseball leagues is scarce. Fans have little access to correct information, the leagues are not segmented into “defined” levels like Minor League Baseball, and most of the promotion of the teams and players is done at the local level – not nationally.
Information for those seeking to become pro baseball players, like you, is even more difficult to find. Chances are that you have probably missed out on a pro baseball tryout where you could have performed well in front of scouts, coaches, and even independent baseball team managers.
Since 1993, many players have “fallen through the cracks” who probably should have played professional baseball in the independent leagues or even higher levels!
1) They didn’t know when or where the pro baseball tryouts were being held
2) Because they keep repeating the same mistakes over and over again which make a player get overlooked, cut, or prevented from being signed to a pro baseball contract
Chances are that no one who is really qualified has told you what the common elements of success are either! This lack of information has killed the potential professional baseball careers of more players than you can imagine. Not being aware of this information can harm your dreams as well…
… until now.
The first thing is to know when and where the independent pro baseball tryouts are going to be held. For the upcoming 2021 season, there will be the following already-established independent professional baseball leagues:
In addition, there are several developmental instructional winter leagues and spring leagues. There also are third-party tryouts which serve one or more independent baseball leagues which have a track record of getting players signed from the tryouts directly with the teams. Some of the third-party professional development baseball leagues and tryout showcases also have the ability to get you signed to play internationally.

My name is Matt Mc Dermott, and I have been involved with the independent baseball industry for parts 19 seasons, across 4 different decades (1990’s, 2000’s, 2010’s, 2020’s). During that time I have had the following duties in the independent pro baseball leagues:
I also run 4 other websites for the professional independent minor league baseball industry:
By being involved with all of these roles, I have had a chance to meet the REAL experts who have the ability to influence decisions on whether or not you get signed to a pro baseball contract. Whatever I know pales in comparison to the expertise each of these individuals has in his specific niche.
In private conversations with each executive or manager/coach we had great discussions about what prospective players can do to get signed, actually STAY on an independent minor league baseball roster, improve their chances of getting signed by an “affiliated” Minor League team, and have a long career as a professional baseball player.
This is the information which you probably never have been told by your coach or even scouts who have looked at your skills.
Each individual I interviewed genuinely wants the best for prospective players so that the players have a long career and that the industry benefits. What I decided to do was simply make those previously-private conversations public. I recorded interviews with each individual on his area of expertise, and now those conversations are available to you for immediate download.
Here is the list of experts from whom you will learn:
Of course, you want to know exactly what you need to know to give yourself the best odds of having a professional baseball career whether it is with an “affiliated” Minor League team, an independent baseball team, or an international team. Each expert gives his insights on what he has witness, first-hand, over the years in independent pro baseball.
If you personally know, or have heard about, great baseball players from your home town, college, or area – yet those players somehow “fell through the cracks” and never played an inning of pro baseball – then you understand how valuable having quality advice would have been to them. It is even better what you know that you can quickly learn from men who have helped hundreds of players since 1993 find out about independent baseball tryouts, get signed to an independent minor league contract, and even move on to higher levels… including the Major Leagues.
What makes this set of interviews unique is that you have actual, authentic conversations with those who are respected in the industry. You can read their regular columns in major baseball publications and websites, learn from those who have managed and coached in the independent leagues this past season, learn from managers who succeeded in the affiliated Minor League and independent baseball levels, and those whose everyday job it is to place and sign players to pro baseball contracts.
All of this advice is available to you in just a few minutes. You will get over 6 hours of audio interviews (MP3 format) and PDF transcripts of other conversations. Since the average independent baseball tryout costs between $50 and $75 (sometimes over $100 per tryout), I wanted to keep the price to less than half of what you would pay.
I figured that a price of $17, which is less than half of just one average tryout’s cost, is a fair price to discover the times and locations of upcoming independent professional baseball tryouts; and you also will get the advice which many players who are on independent baseball rosters TODAY don’t even know!
Many current players have not networked, met others in the industry, and have not earned the trust of those who know what it takes to have a great professional baseball career AND what it takes to succeed when it is time to transition to the post-playing career. You now have access to a competitive edge which is based on what actually works.
Whether or not you, ultimately, end up playing for one inning on a professional baseball team you will learn what works today and what will work for the foreseeable future. You can advise other players even if you end up coaching college or high school baseball.
Hi Matt,
This is an informative interview about the realities of the baseball pipeline, given to us from a man who is in the thick of the Independent Baseball world. We are given a privileged look at the business side of baseball through the eyes, and experience, of a man who has dealt first-hand with the inner-workings of the leagues. It is no longer a matter of me wondering what it takes to make an Independent team, it is a matter of doing it.
The dream of playing professional baseball can become so abstract in a player’s mind that it can cloud the realities that take place on the ground. If you were not signed out of high school or college and you want to play professional baseball, you have to work hard to get yourself good enough to get looked at by scouts, or to get the attention of coaches at a tryout.
For the overlooked player, it is not enough to have the skills of a professional player. You have to network and get your baseball profile out to managers and scouts before they see you, if you want a legitimate look. You have to be better than the players the organizations already have, because they have money invested in their own players. Once you make it, you have to perform well—plain and simple.
Thanks, Matt, for interviewing somebody with experience in the “industry”. I have often speculated what it takes to make it to the next level of baseball. It feels good to have listened to an accredited source tell me about the realities of the game.
Sincerely,
Josh M.
I do like the information that they give and kind of the inside look at what they think. From a players point of view, we sometimes do not see outside the box. They give you another angle. – D.S.
Think back on all of the baseball lessons, training equipment, tryouts, travel costs, and DVD’s that you (and your parents!) probably purchased to get you to this point in your career. Chances are that it amounts to hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars. And how many of those purchases came with a guarantee to make sure that you were satisfied? Probably very few!
Not so with this set of interviews.
You get a satisfaction-guaranteed commitment that you will enjoy what you learn on the audio files and PDF’s. Listen to them and follow the advice for 60 days. If, within those 60 days, you don’t like what you learned then you can return them for no charge and you will get your money back.
That promise is backed by Clickbank, which is the largest retailer of digital products online. They are the online equivalent of the major bookstore in your area, so they make sure that I – and other suppliers of information who use them – ensure our promises.
I want to make sure that you enjoy the materials and feel as if you (or your family) made a smart investment to help your career. I stand behind the content so much that I decided to sell these interviews through a retailer who forces me to honor my guarantee.
In turn, I hope that you will enjoy what you learn so much that you refer your friends and teammates to this website.
And if I decide to add new interviews with similar professional baseball experts then I will include them with your purchase for no additional charge.
If you want to know the “big picture” of joining the ranks of professional baseball, and do so for a “minor” investment, then be sure to act now and get the information which is long overdue. Too many players have had their careers end prematurely.
Not due to injury, but due to a lack of knowledge.

Thank you for getting these interviews and doing what you can to further your baseball playing career. By learning what it takes to succeed at independent baseball tryouts, get signed to a pro baseball contract, be the type of player who stays with an independent baseball team, and what it takes to get noticed by the affiliated Minor League teams you will have a knowledge base which few others have.
Should you get signed to a contract and play at least one inning based on what you learned then be sure to keep in touch and let us know your success story!
Best wishes for a successful launch for your professional baseball career,
Matt
