How do players decide where to play? Is it CPM that tells them where they are going or do they chose?

Would like to know this as well. Read something about it few years ago, but cannot remember.

The coaches (probably the Baseball OPS guy really) help them find their assignments. The Cape Cod league is more by invitation. MLB scouts help make those decisions.

The rest of the leagues it's basically using connections to get guys to certain places with the idea of maximizing their playing time.

We send most of our non-Cape guys to the Northwoods league. The incoming freshmen are limited to particular leagues that allow them to play, so Prospect and Cal Ripken league are used.

Northwoods is considered one of the better leagues after the Cape. There are some other good leagues out there that we don't use as much though.

I haven't seen any guys headed to the Alaska league this summer. Considering the three guys we sent there last year were Wofford, Dawson, and McKay, that may be a good thing.
