Four packed days. One amazing fantasy baseball weekend. 

29th Annual Fantasy Baseball Symposium 
at the Arizona Fall League

October 31-November 3, 2024 at Sheraton Mesa Wrigleyville

First Pitch Arizona is a one-of-a-kind, four-day immersive fantasy baseball weekend! What’s in store?

The information.

Player evaluation. Prospect talk. Game format strategy. How to use the latest analytic tools and metrics. 

Take in all that First Pitch has to offer and prime the pump for your 2025 championship run. You’ll receive a weekend’s worth of insight from fantasy baseball’s top analysts and players that you can apply to competitions as targeted as your local home league or as expansive as those national overall contests.

The experience. 

AFL Ballgames. Live podcasts. Industry one-on-ones. Hallway conversations. Live drafts. Lasting friendships. 

See the prospects of the Arizona Fall League in gorgeous Phoenix fall weather. Ask questions/interact with your favorite fantasy baseball personalities in a group or individual setting. Draft an early 2025 team in a league of fellow FPAZ participants (with prizes!). Or just hang out for four days with like-minded fantasy baseball fanatics.

The camaraderie.

It’s the word that so many have used to describe First Pitch Arizona. Here’s some additional descriptions of the weekend from 2023 attendees: 

  • “It's the best gathering of the greatest minds in the industry. I am undoubtedly a much better player since I began attending FPAZ.”
  • “It's so rare to be at an event where you can carpool to a baseball game with some of the people who helped you fall in love with fantasy baseball, or to just go grab lunch with some of the best minds in the industry. It's truly special and I love it.”
  • “My best friends in life have made this a yearly getaway.”

2024 will be the 29th edition of the signature fantasy baseball symposium hosted by BaseballHQ.
