James Weisser has been following prospects since 2003, joining the Off The Bench Baseball team in 2019. He has seen MVP’s, Cy Young Winners, and All-Stars before they ever played in the majors. He is an avid college baseball fan who enjoys watching the SEC and ACC, when often times the cold, wet weather of his hometown Midwest allows him to follow some of the top players in both conferences. He also enjoys following/covering the Midwest League, which is often the level at which a player’s competes for his first full professional season. He also seeks out top amateur talent that comes through the Chicago area in other forms, including the Under Armour All-America game held annually at Wrigley Field. He currently resides in McHenry, Illinois which is located within an hour from the Beloit Snappers and Kane County Cougars. A White Sox fan growing up, a few of his all-time favorite players to watch are Frank Thomas, Albert Pujols, Derek
Jeter, Ryan Howard, Clayton Kershaw, Barry Bonds, Mike Trout, and Ken Griffey Jr.
