The roster of European prospects to show off their skills with the premise to find a spot at a North American college will make the trip to Florida this time to play six games from September 24 to October 1. Ten pitchers, four catchers, six outfielders and eight infielders from the Netherlands, Italy, Germany, France and Belgium will be aboard.
