The Prospect Development Pipeline (PDP) is a Major League Baseball – USA Baseball joint initiative. The voluntary program established the official identification and assessment pathway to elite amateur baseball players to all 30 MLB Clubs for the amateur draft.

Athletes participating in the PDP receive access to state-of-the-art technology for their unique baseball and athletic assessments, along with the most comprehensive evaluative experience of any sport, including professional sports’ combines.
