The give-us-a-chance guys

The headcount is in for the first day of the Frontier League tryout camp at Consol Energy Park and W&J's Ross Memorial. There are 190 players here. When the league held the tryout in Washington for the first time in 2004, there were 275 players. In 2005, the number dropped to 176. There are fewer players this year who have profesisonal experience, which obviously means more college players will be drafted (each of the 12 teams are required to draft at least 2 players). There are also 13 players who have no college or professional experience but were willing to pay the $60 to say they chased their dream of being a baseball player.
