Vision-

The Cape Cod Baseball League is the premier collegiate summer wood bat league in the nation. To live up to that reputation, the philosophy in Brewster has always been to assemble the most competitive team possible.

Naturally, you have to make sure you don’t end up with four catchers and no shortstop. But aside from seeking the right balance of offense, defense and pitching, what are the Club’s recruiting criteria? What do the Whitecaps look for as they build the roster each season? Here are some of Coach Mac’s thoughts on the subject.

“First and foremost, we talk to college coaches and professional scouts to lead us in the right direction for the selection of the players. Of course, previous performance and statistics in college are important. Additionally, players who have been successful in other highly competitive summer collegiate baseball leagues are usually promising candidates for our roster. Finally, we try to select players who are solid citizens. We want young men who are dependable, self-confident and self-disciplined enough to play hard for an entire summer, with all its ups and downs.”
