Anyone considering this league? Know anything about it?

Son played there right out of HS (two summers ago) and will probably play there again this summer after being injured this spring. My sons team is made up of all active college players, but it's a pay to play league so you have a big mix of talent (heard it was better last summer vs the first couple). You have pitchers from ASU and UofA all the way down to position players throwing some innings. Son played last summer in the Texas League and it's nothing like that. Games are at spring training sites. If you have more specific questions I can try to answer them, plus I know a couple of the coaches/teams as well.

How did the AZ league compare to Texas league? Is AZ league organized ? Do they have a lot of out of town players or is it mostly local players? Thanks!
Look up the roster of the Brazos Valley Bombers. Comparably the AZ teams will have 1-3 D1 players and The rest d2-juco. Most, but not all, kids are local as there are no host families or housing. The league is well run and pretty inexpensive compared to other pay to play leagues.
