I would say it is 99% a money grab. The Area Code Games is really upper echelon. MLB Scouts don’t miss completely (as in having no idea they exist!) on 99.9% of top prospects.

There are far better ways to get on the radar for the Area Code Games. First and foremost is to be really phenomenal. Do you run a 6.6 60? Throw 95+? Hit Bombs off of pitchers that throw 90+? Do you have the Top Travel Teams competing with each other to have you on their team? Are you getting invites to Perfect Game National?

I know players from our area who check all those boxes, and are P5 commits, ranked in the Top 10 by PBR in our state, who STILL did not get an Area Codes invite.

So yeah. Huge money grab.
