The Frontier League (Independent MLB Partner League) has announced that President Eric Krupa has resigned effective immediately. A search will be conducted for a new league prez but no timeline was given. The official press release is here.

Mr. Krupa served as Frontier League President for not quite two years, taking over ahead of the 2022 season. You’ll also recognize his name from his tenure as President of the South Atlantic League from 2008 until the Great MLB Hostile Takeover of 2021. He has accepted the position of chief operating officer with Ryan Sanders Baseball, which operates the Round Rock Express (Triple-A Pacific Coast League) and is co-owner of the San Antonio Missions (Double-A Texas League).

We’re presuming that the league will continue to use Eric Krupa balls until a replacement is named, which will most likely be after the season completes in early September. So, a new FL ball to look forward to in 2023!
