In episode #7 of the Down In The Dirt Podcast, I talk with Arizona Diamondbacks Scout, Chris Carminucci. Chris is a former Professional Baseball Player and Manager and is now a Major League Scout with the Arizona Diamondbacks. Chris and I talk about the benefits of playing Independent Baseball and how it is another route for those that aspire to continue playing or may have been released from affiliated baseball. We talk about the benefits from playing independent baseball, not only the experiences you get along the way, but the possibility of getting picked up again by an affiliated team. We talk about the scouting process and how to get seen by scouts and what they may or may not be looking for specifically. We dive into what happens once you do get signed by an affiliated club, what that process looks like and the opportunities that you are then presented. Chris also talks about his new book he released, “Sign Me : The Undrafted Ballplayers Guide to the Independent Leagues”. Be sure to get yourself a copy of his book on Amazon!
