Avon, OH – The Frontier League is proud to be once again represented by alumni in the 2025 Arizona Fall League, an offseason showcase featuring many of Major League Baseball’s top prospects and rising players. Included this year are former Frontier League players Nate Wohlgemuth (Evansville Otters), Trevor Kuncl (Lake Erie Crushers), Josh Loeschorn (New York Boulders), and Dariel Fregio (Washington Wild Things), who are each taking the mound in Arizona. Former Joliet Slammer Nick Lovullo appears this Fall as the coach for the Mesa team. Nate Wohlgemuth | Evansville Otters — Houston Astros From Evansville to the Arizona desert, former Otter's pitcher Nate Wohlgemuth is proving that hard work pays off. Wohlgemuth began the 2025 season with the Otters, and quickly stood out, with his contract being purchased by the Houston Astros organization in June. Once in the Astros system, Wohlgemuth wasted no time proving he belonged. The right-hander appeared in 17 games for High-A Asheville, recording a 3.13 ERA and 31 strikeouts in 23 innings out of the bullpen. His consistent command and fastball velocity, reaching as high as 98 mph, earned him a spot in the Arizona Fall League, where he’s now facing some of the game’s top prospects. Trevor Kuncl | Lake Erie Crushers — Cincinnati Reds An All-Star for the Lake Erie Crushers, Trevor Kuncl spent three seasons in the Frontier League, posting a 2.98 ERA with 168 strikeouts in 142 innings pitched. His contract was purchased by the Cincinnati Reds following the 2024 season. Kuncl continued to impress in his first year of affiliated baseball, posting a 2.34 ERA with 51 strikeouts over 50 innings for Double-A Chattanooga. He now represents the Reds organization with Peoria in the Arizona Fall League. Josh Loeschorn | New York Boulders — Pittsburgh Pirates Josh Loeschorn made his Frontier League debut with the New York Boulders in 2022, where he pitched 26 innings across five games, striking out 18. Shortly after, he was selected by the Pittsburgh Pirates in the 2022 MLB Draft. In two seasons within the Pirates organization, Loeschorn has an ERA of 3.64, and 113 strikeouts in 96 innings. Now competing for Salt River in the Arizona Fall League, he has credited the Frontier League for giving him his first opportunity to face professional-level hitters. Dariel Fregio | Washington Wild Things — Detroit Tigers After two standout seasons with the Washington Wild Things, Dariel Fregio had his contract purchased by the Detroit Tigers organization ahead of the 2025 season. In Washington, he logged 164 innings with a 4.04 ERA and 128 strikeouts. Fregio has carried that success into affiliated baseball, posting a 1.82 ERA with 43 strikeouts in 39.2 innings pitched in his first season with the Tigers system. He is currently competing in the Arizona Fall League with Scottsdale. Nick Lovullo | Joliet Slammers — Chicago Cubs Organization Rounding out the Frontier League’s representation is Nick Lovullo, who played with the Joliet Slammers in 2021 before transitioning into coaching. Lovullo now manages the South Bend Cubs, the High-A affiliate of the Chicago Cubs, and is serving as a coach of the Mesa Solar Sox in the Arizona Fall League.

Avon, OH – As the Toronto Blue Jays battle in the American League Championship Series, one name in their coaching staff may be familiar to Frontier League fans, hitting coach David Popkins. Popkins spent the 2015 and 2016 seasons with the Washington Wild Things, where he quickly became one of the franchise’s top offensive performers. In 2015, he hit 20 home runs, becoming one of just seven players in team history to record a 20-plus homer season. The following year, Popkins posted a .309 batting average with 15 home runs, 48 RBI, and 26 doubles, earning a selection as a 2016 Frontier League All-Star. Following his playing career, Popkins transitioned into coaching and joined the Minnesota Twins as their hitting coach from 2022–2023. He is currently serving in the same role with the Toronto Blue Jays, helping guide the club’s offense through the 2025 postseason. From his standout seasons in Washington to coaching on baseball’s biggest stage, Popkins continues to make an impact at every level of the game.

After powering the Quebec Capitales to their fourth consecutive Frontier League Championship, outfielder Justin Gideon has been named the 2025 Frontier League Playoffs Most Valuable Player. Gideon delivered in the biggest moments of the Finals against the Schaumburg Boomers, hitting .380 (8-for-21) with two home runs and eight RBIs over the five-game series. His performance reached its peak in Sunday night’s decisive Game 5, where he tripled to center with two outs and two strikes in the ninth inning, driving in the go-ahead run in Quebec’s 6–5 championship-clinching victory at Wintrust Field.

The Québec Capitales went toe-to-toe with the Schaumburg Boomers in the decisive fifth game of the Frontier League Championship, but Québec broke a ninth-inning tie to secure a 6–5 victory and clinch their fourth consecutive league title on Sunday night at Wintrust Field. Québec struck early, with Jesmuel Valentin doubling to lead off the game and Kyle Crowl following two batters later with a two-run home run. Valentin delivered again in the second, sending a solo blast just over the wall to extend the lead to 4–1. Schaumburg answered in the fourth, capitalizing on an error to spark a three-run rally. With two outs, Nick Podkul drew a walk before Alex Calarco ripped a two-run double. Kyle Fitzgerald then singled home the tying run to make it 4–4. The Boomers grabbed their first lead in the sixth when Banks Tolley launched a towering homer to straightaway center, putting Schaumburg ahead 5–4. Québec battled back in the seventh, loading the bases with three straight singles before Justin Gideon drew a walk to force home the tying run. The deciding moment came in the ninth. With two outs and two strikes, Gideon, who was later named Finals MVP, tripled to the wall in center, plating the go-ahead run and giving Québec a 6–5 lead. Closer Connor Roland entered in the bottom half and sealed the championship with a scoreless inning.
