Major League Baseball is proud to present Advancing Bases December 11-12, 2024, the second edition of this two-day event which debuted last year at the 2023 Baseball Winter Meetings in Nashville, TN to provide a platform for diverse talent across the spectrum of baseball operations to receive continuing education and engagement with Club and League personnel through panels, breakout sessions, and professional development workshops.  Building on the success of the Take the Field program which serves women looking to build careers in baseball, Advancing Bases is meant to provide similar programming and opportunities to diverse individuals. The program will feature topic areas such as baseball operations, baseball analytics, scouting, player development, coaching, and research and development in addition to discussions regarding leadership, growth, and advancing your career in baseball.  Club and League personnel will be involved as discussion facilitators to share their insight and perspective with candidates, providing constructive advice to further assist their growth in the game.   

Major League Baseball will be reaching out to all 30 MLB Clubs for the nomination of baseball operations employees to participate as full participants and as mentors during the event.  Interested candidates currently not working for an MLB organization can apply to be selected. Applicants are encouraged to apply as soon as possible to be considered and selected prior to the start of the Baseball Winter Meetings.
