Cape Cod Report: Week 1 Notes

On Monday, June 10 the Cape Cod Baseball League began its 56th year of the so-called Modern Era, which commenced in 1963 when the NCAA formally sanctioned the circuit. Comprised of 10 organizations split into Eastern and Western divisions, a 42-game regular season is followed by three rounds of playoff action beginning Aug. 2.

The All-Star Game is scheduled for July 21 at Eldredge Park in Orleans, Mass.

Rosters remain in flux for the entire summer, especially in the first few weeks as many “contract” players are either still playing in the NCAA Tournament, assessing professional opportunities after the recent MLB draft or trying out for Team USA. In their place are “temp” players getting an opportunity to earn a permanent roster spot while gaining valuable exposure in front of scouts. Toward the end of the summer some pitchers will reach workload limits and be shutdown, often replaced by arms from other summer leagues. Taken together, the heart of the season occurs in July, after rosters are locked, crowds swell & MLB scouts arrive in throngs.

Pitchers often enjoy an early advantage as hitters adjust to the wood bat while trying to develop advanced barrel awareness. In addition, hurlers experiment more with pounding the inner-half with less fear and gain an appreciation for breaking bats. That battle usually evens out over the course of the summer.

We’ll talk to coaches, players, scouts and other sources to bring you player development & performance insights through weekly columns, regular tweets & other means of communication.

Florida International University Head Coach Mervyl Melendez has landed several outstanding recruiting classes over his time in Miami, including the No. 10 class of 2017 when the headliner was lefthander Logan Allen. A 16th round draft pick out of high school, Allen earned Freshman All-American honors in 2018 before boosting his performance further this spring, posting a 3.11 ERA over 84 innings, with 120 strikeouts and only 25 walks.
