Cactus League Rosters, Schedule for “Majors”

Rosters and a schedule for the “Major” Division have been posted on the PSS website.  Click here to view:  Major-Cactus-Schedule

Weather permitting, we intend to begin Cactus play on March 6 in order to accommodate an April 3 draft and April 17 Summer season start.  The forecast through March 6 is not promising, but we will be ready with teams and scheduled games when (not “if”) the weather breaks. 

You will note that managers have not been designated for Cactus.  Teams should be able to govern themselves, bearing in mind that new players should be given ample opportunity to showcase their skills.  Similarly, returning players who might wish to play new positions should also be given a chance to do so.

As noted previously, Cactus League games are intended to (1) ensure that all players are assigned to the division appropriate for their skill level and competitive preference, and (2) help managers evaluate players in preparation for the Summer League drafts.  Competitive balance in Cactus games is not a primary consideration and (3) Cactus games may also serve to test possible changes to playing rules or game formats.

Only fully registered and paid players will be permitted to take the field for Cactus games.  If you have not registered and/or paid, please be advised that the registration fee will rise to $90, from $70, after March 6.  For registration information, click here: 2023 PSS Registration or contact Mark Adams (Membership board member) at the field or email him at nacc4@hotmail.com.

(Players new to PSS are required to register, but will be accorded the customary “free” three-game tryout.)

Here’s hoping we get a break in the weather so that we can finally get going.
