Amateur career

Ponce de Leon attended La Mirada High School in La Mirada, California. In 2010, his senior year, he went 6–3 with a 2.95 earned run average (ERA).[1] The Tampa Bay Rays selected him in the 24th round of the 2010 MLB draft, but he did not sign and enrolled at the University of Arizona to play college baseball for the Arizona Wildcats.[2] He pitched only three innings as a freshman, and then transferred to Cypress Junior College for the 2012 season.[3] After that season, he was drafted by the Cincinnati Reds in the 38th round of the 2012 MLB draft, but once again did not sign. After the season, he transferred once again, this time to the University of Houston. In 15 starts for Houston for the 2013 season, he was 7–5 with a 4.47 ERA.[4]

Following the season, Ponce de Leon was drafted by the Chicago Cubs in the 14th round of the 2013 MLB draft and the two parties had reached a deal. However, he failed his physical due to concerns about nerve placement in his elbow and did not sign. Ponce de Leon planned to return to Houston, but the NCAA ruled that he was ineligible to return. He then enrolled at Embry–Riddle Aeronautical University.[5] In 14 starts, he was 9–2 with a 1.60 ERA, holding batters to a .196 batting average.[6]
