As the proprietor of Hit Dogs Illinois, it is with great enthusiasm that I announce the organization's forthcoming transition to Trosky Baseball Illinois, effective at the conclusion of the 2026 summer baseball season. This strategic move will immediately expand opportunities for our current and future players on a national scale. By affiliating with Trosky Baseball, a reputable national organization, we anticipate significant growth and exposure in the Midwest region. Players will have the chance to represent the Brewers Scout team and the Trosky National Baseball Team, competing in prestigious events such as the Jupiter Perfect Game championships, to which Trosky Baseball holds two automatic bids. Furthermore, our players will benefit from Trosky's established relationship with Perfect Game and my continued collaboration with Prep Baseball Report. This affiliation will provide our athletes with enhanced resources, including access to Zoom calls with former Trosky alumni like Bobby Witt, college coaches, recruiting coordinators, mental performance coaches, and strength and conditioning specialists. Additionally, they will have priority access to Nate Trosky Baseball Camps and exclusive Perfect Game showcases. I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to Scott and Tony Leonard of Motor City Hit Dogs for entrusting me with the Hit Dogs Illinois brand, which has achieved considerable success under our current leadership. More information regarding tryouts and upcoming events will be announced in subsequent press releases.
