Diamond Pro Teams

DP Canes Travel Team

Diamond Pro runs travel baseball teams, the "DP CANES" that range from 8u -17u.  Each team has local high school or regional coaches to provide the best instruction and development possible.

These teams give student-athletes an opportunity to develop emotionally and physically while exposing them to some of the best competition and tournaments in the Northeast.  Through our winter practices and summer season, we teach each student-athlete how to become a true ball player by learning how to play the game the right way.

100+ DP Canes have gone on to play college baseball at the division I, II, II, and Junior College ranks. 

Three former DP Canes were drafted in the Major League Baseball Draft. 

• Tanner Cooper (35th Round, Cincinatti Reds) 2019 MLB Draft

• Gage Ziehl (11th Round, Chicago Cubs) 2021 MLB Draft, (4th Round, NY Yankees) 2024 MLB Draft

• Casey Suacke (4th Round, Chicago White Sox) 2024 MLB Draft

• Michael Salina (4th Round, San Diego Padres) 2025 MLB Draft
