11/1/2016-The Arizona Winter League is the worst option for a free agent player trying to sign a contract for upcoming season. The Arizona Winter League is a pay to play Winter League that contacts all Pecos League Players telling them to attend the Winter League and they will be signed by a higher level team or an affliated club.

They use the name Arizona Winter League to confuse players with Arizona Fall League. Many players fall for the confusion. Major League Baseball has actually filed a lawsuit against them as shown here.

They have no direct affliation with any independent league. They claim they have coaches from American Association and Atlantic League there to sign players.

The truth is they have virtually no jobs for players and no connections. Many leagues ban their players. They managers they have are in higher level leagues and cant sign rookies. They offer no refunds for the players. Virtually none of their players make opening day rosters anywhere.

They try to confuse players that the Arizona Winter League is similar to the Arizona Fall League which is a league owned by MILB. They also try to make a connection to the original Arizona Winter League which existed in the late 2000s. That league was owned by the Golden League and was the original Winter League.

Chris Triebt pitched in the Atlantic League for three years and was the Manager of Roswell Invaders "As a player I attended both the California (2012) and Texas Winter Leagues (2013). I lead the CWL in ERA and appereances and got no offers. They told me I would get a call. My only job was in the Pecos League. Back then the Pecos League allowed CWL players or I would have had no job. The Arizona Winter League is the Texas Winter League they are trying to confuse people by changing names. It is not the Arizona Winter League from 2008-2011. They are trying to use the name of the Arizona Winter League to confuse players. What jobs do they have for players? They used to send everyone to the United League which no longer exists. Players who go there will get hung. They have no where to send you and just want your money. The player is the loser in this deal. I would go on to pitch in the Atlantic League and they told me they have no jobs??.. The last winter league I would attend would be Arizona Winter League."
