Jeremy Booth, PROGRAM 15 Founder, CEO and President of Baseball Operations for The New Balance Baseball Future Stars Series said, “Our scouts took an inordinate amount of time to arrive at these names. It was truly a global search, and there were many players we agonized over that didn’t end up on this list. We give credit to our partner programs and their staffs for the excellent job they do in developing talent. We’re excited for Boston, and look forward to a very memorable event”.

The annual signature event of New Balance Baseball is an invitation-only series featuring international amateur talent identified by PROGRAM 15’s National Staff of former Major League Players, Coaches and Scouts through Future Stars Series player development combines, scout days, partner events and national trials.

The inaugural New Balance Future Stars Series International Week was held in 2017 at Constellation Field in Sugar Land, Texas and featured an incredible 14 players who were chosen in the following 2018 MLB Draft.

The 2018 International Week was held at Camelback Ranch in Glendale Arizona, spring training home of the Los Angeles Dodgers and Chicago White Sox. Last year’s annual event featured Record-Breaking 18 players selected in the recent 2019 MLB Draft.
