Field of Dreams
Sanctioned by the NCAA,
these near-professional collegiate level athletes from around the country
are trying to make their dreams of becoming Major League Baseball players come
true. Members of the current Peekskill Robins team could be the next Derek
Jeter, Jose Reyes, Alex Rodriguez, David Wright or David Ortiz.
Former Atlantic Collegiate Baseball League (ACBL) players that did make it
include Craig Biggio, Rick Cerone, Jamie Moyer, Frank
Viola (World Series Winner), John Flaherty, Frank Torre, and
Matt Morris.
31 Former Robins
Signed to Professional Contracts
In our five years of existence and
through four Major League drafts 31 Robins have been signed to professional
baseball contracts, more than any other teams in the ACBL. To put that into
perspective, 30% of our players have progressed to professional baseball.
That is a remarkable testament to what our program has accomplished in a short
period of time and we continue to see our alumni succeed. In the 2007 Major
League Baseball draft, 13 players from the ACBL were drafted, four of which were
Robins Alumni.
Former MLB Scout
Recruits Talent
Our players are scouted, and hand
picked by Mike DeAngelo, a former Major League Baseball scout for the San
Francisco Giants, Kansas City Royals, Los Angeles Angels and Major League
Scouting Bureau. In addition to his professional scouting experience, DeAngelo
played professional baseball in the Montreal Expos organization and provides the
Robins with steadfast leadership and focus.
Atlantic Collegiate
Baseball League (ACBL)
The Atlantic Collegiate Baseball
League is a wood bat baseball league with eight teams located in NJ, NY, PA. The
ACBL is in its 42nd year in existence and has provided thousands of
college players the opportunity to play pure wood bat baseball against top-level
competition. The ACBL is one of eight leagues affiliated with the national
alliance of college summer baseball (NACSB) – an alliance of college summer wood
bat leagues which operate following NCAA legislation.
The ACBL’s mission can be summed up in one phrase, player-focused. The
schedule (night games, 40-game schedule, and minimal travel) is designed to
allow players time during the day to work, attend summer classes or condition on
their own. ACBL is all about volunteerism – volunteers operate the league, staff
the games and the players volunteer in their communities.
ACBL is one of the top summer leagues, as recognized by Baseball America. They
exist to advance college players towards their futures in profession baseball.
This summer the ACBL will again give 160 college players from both local areas
and around the country the opportunity to compete in our summer league, as well
as job opportunities within our communities.
