The Diamond Skills Dodgers are one of the most successful and influential showcase organizations in the nation. Since forming in 2007 we have sent more than 173 players into college baseball and have sent 11 players into professional baseball including former Major Leaguer LJ Hoes of the Baltimore Orioles and Houston Astros and 2014 First Round pick Nick Howard from the University of Virginia. Despite fielding only 3 teams (15U, 16U an 17U) our track record of successfully placing players in college baseball is outstanding. We have close personal relationships with college coaches from around the United States across all levels of college baseball. We also enjoy strong relationships with many Major League organizations. Our players have gone onto careers at some of the most powerful baseball programs in the nation including 2015 National Champion Virginia, Mississippi, North Carolina, Alabama, Tennessee, Florida State and Mississippi State. We have also seen our players continue their careers at some of the most elite academic institutions in the nation including Harvard, Princeton, Duke, Georgetown, Boston College, Wake Forest, Holy Cross, Davidson, Army and Emory. Players interested in joining the Dodgers should contact Mark Gibbs at mgibbs@stjohnschs.org
