Welcome to the Scouts Committee home page!
The Scouts Committee was formed in 1994 to compile a complete roster of scouts with biographical and career information for each and a listing of the big league ballplayers signed. A newsletter is published twice a year.
The Who-Signed-Whom Database has been integrated into the online SABR Encyclopedia.
Since 2001, the commmittee has recognized a baseball executive who has made significant contribution to the scouting community with the Roland Hemond Award. Past winners include Roland Hemond, Bob Howsam, Pat Gillick, Paul Snyder, Paul Beeston and Bob Fontaine.
