Now, more than a dozen alumni are on postseason rosters vying for a World Series championship.<\/p>\n<p>Since Fort Wayne\u2019s Minor League Baseball franchise was established in 1993, there\u2019ve been 228 players who\u2019ve ascended from playing in the Summit City to the big leagues. (The club was known as the Wizards through 2008 before rebranding as the TinCaps in \u201909.)<\/p>\n<p>Jackson Merrill, who starred for the TinCaps just last year, was one of nine alums to make his MLB debut in 2024. The National League Rookie of the Year candidate was also one of six selected for MLB\u2019s All-Star Game in July. Merrill was joined there in Texas by fellow Padres outfielder Fernando Tatis Jr. (2017), plus Max Fried (2013-14 \u2013 Braves), Trea Turner (2014 &#8211; Phillies), Andr\u00e9s Mu\u00f1oz (2017 \u2013 Mariners), and CJ Abrams (2019 \u2013 Nationals).<\/p>\n<p>Over the course of the campaign, former TinCaps appeared with 26 of MLB\u2019s 30 teams. (The only clubs without a former \u2019Caps player were the Angels, Blue Jays, Giants, and Tigers.) Thirteen alums played for the Padres, Fort Wayne\u2019s parent club since 1999. San Diego\u2019s coaching staff also included five former Fort Wayne staff memebrs: catching coach and game strategy assistant Brian Esposito (2022), hitting instructor Morgan Burkhart (2013-14), athletic trainer Ricky Huerta (2013-15), strength coach Jay Young (2017), and equipment manager T.J. Laidlaw. There are even more former players and coaches on the staffs of other teams.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re proud to offer affordable, family fun at Parkview Field,\u201d said TinCaps President Mike Nutter. \u201cWe know a lot of fans come to Parkview Field to simply enjoy the entertainment, the food and drinks, and the overall atmosphere, but here\u2019s a reminder that there are also future big leaguers on the field \u2013 not to mention the prospects on the visiting teams. We\u2019re so happy to see our old friends achieve their dreams of playing in The Show.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kevin Kiermaier (Dodgers) and Zach McKinstry (Tigers), who grew up in Fort Wayne and once played at Parkview Field as visitors, are on playoff teams, too.<br \/>\nThe TinCaps will open their 2025 season at Parkview Field on Friday, April 5. Season ticket packages are on sale now through TinCaps.com. Before then, Parkview Field will stay busy hosting special events, including a brand new Holiday Lights walk-thru experience, presented by Rohrman Automotive, Paul Davis, and Lear Corporation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Former TinCaps Players in MLB in 2024<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>INF CJ Abrams, 2019 (Nationals)**<\/li>\n<li>LHP Logan Allen, 2014 (Diamondbacks)<\/li>\n<li>INF Gabriel Arias, 2017-18 (Guardians)<\/li>\n<li>RHP Pedro Avila, 2017 (Padres \/ Guardians)<\/li>\n<li>INF Jake Bauers, 2014 (Brewers)<\/li>\n<li>RHP Lake Bachar, 2016-17 (Marlins)*<\/li>\n<li>RHP David Bednar, 2016-17 (Pirates)<\/li>\n<li>RHP Caleb Boushley, 2018 (Twins)<\/li>\n<li>C Luis Campusano, 2018 (Padres)<\/li>\n<li>LHP Joey Cantillo, 2018-19 (Guardians)*<\/li>\n<li>RHP Dylan Coleman, 2018-19 (Astros)<\/li>\n<li>LHP Tom Cosgrove, 2018 (Padres)<\/li>\n<li>INF Xavier Edwards, 2019 (Marlins)<\/li>\n<li>RHP Zach Eflin, 2013 (Rays \/ Orioles)<\/li>\n<li>RHP Enyel De Los Santos, 2016 (Padres \/ Yankees \/ White Sox)<\/li>\n<li>INF Ty France, 2016 (Mariners \/ Reds)<\/li>\n<li>LHP Max Fried, 2013-14 (Braves)**<\/li>\n<li>LHP Robert Gasser, 2022 (Brewers)*<\/li>\n<li>LHP MacKenzie Gore, 2018, \u201921 (Nationals)<\/li>\n<li>C Austin Hedges, 2012 (Guardians)<\/li>\n<li>RHP Jairo Iriarte, 2023 (White Sox)*<\/li>\n<li>RHP Alek Jacob, 2022 (Padres)<\/li>\n<li>RHP Michael Kelly, 2012-13, \u201915 (A\u2019s)<\/li>\n<li>RHP Dinelson Lamet, 2015 (Dodgers)<\/li>\n<li>LHP Joey Lucchesi, 2016 (Mets)<\/li>\n<li>RHP Phil Maton, 2016 (Rays \/ Mets)<\/li>\n<li>RHP Adam Mazur, 2023 (Padres)*<\/li>\n<li>OF Jackson Merrill, 2023 (Padres)* **<\/li>\n<li>RHP Miles Mikolas, 2010 (Cardinals)<\/li>\n<li>INF Owen Miller, 2018 (Brewers)<\/li>\n<li>LHP Adrian Morejon, 2017 (Padres)<\/li>\n<li>RHP Andr\u00e9s Mu\u00f1oz, 2017 (Mariners)**<\/li>\n<li>RHP Chris Paddack, 2016 (Twins)<\/li>\n<li>INF Graham Pauley, 2023 (Padres)*<\/li>\n<li>INF Jace Peterson, 2012 (Diamondbacks)<\/li>\n<li>RHP Cal Quantrill, 2016 (Rockies)<\/li>\n<li>RHP Emmanuel Ramirez, 2016-18 (Marlins)*<\/li>\n<li>RHP Colin Rea, 2012-13 (Brewers)<\/li>\n<li>OF Hunter Renfroe, 2013 (Royals)<\/li>\n<li>RHP Gerardo Reyes, 2016 (A\u2019s)<\/li>\n<li>INF Eguy Rosario, 2017 (Padres)<\/li>\n<li>RHP Joe Ross, 2012-13 (Brewers)<\/li>\n<li>OF Esteury Ruiz, 2018 (A\u2019s)<\/li>\n<li>RHP Jos\u00e9 Ruiz, 2015 (Phillies)<\/li>\n<li>LHP Erik Sabrowski, 2021 (Guardians)*<\/li>\n<li>OF Jack Suwinski, 2017-18 (Pirates)<\/li>\n<li>OF Travis Jankowski, 2012 (Rangers)<\/li>\n<li>OF Fernando Tatis Jr., 2017 (Padres)**<\/li>\n<li>INF Trea Turner, 2014 (Phillies)**<\/li>\n<li>INF Luis Ur\u00edas, 2015 (Mariners)<\/li>\n<li>RHP Matt Waldron, 2021 (Padres)<\/li>\n<li>LHP Ryan Weathers, 2018-19 (Marlins)<\/li>\n<li>RHP Trey Wingenter, 2016 (Red Sox \/ Cubs)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>*MLB debut<br \/>\n**All-Star<br \/>\n<strong>Notes<\/strong>: List doesn\u2019t include catcher Blake Hunt (2019), who was added to Baltimore\u2019s roster in July, but didn\u2019t appear in a game with the Orioles.
