Current Client Roster
You won't find a lot of names here, as I've purposely kept my practice small enough to treat every client as a priority.
Ryan Harvey (2003 draft #6 pick round 1), Joe Torres (2000 draft #10 pick in round 1), Matt Fox (2004 draft #35 pick) and Steve Cardullo (2010 draft 24th round) have been with me since they were drafted. Carlos Delgado (signed as a Free Agent), Jamie Romak (2003 draft 4th round) & Tim Raines (1998 draft 6th round) were previously represented by other Agents that didn't make them a priority. The comments they all make reflect their positive experiences as my clients.

"After 18 years working together with David Sloane, I can say that I know this guy pretty well. We go back to 1992 when I was in single A, we have come a long way since.
We've been through thick and thin and he has always been there with good advice and has always been very supportive.
This is a guy that will put forth his best effort every day to find the best for his client, he is as fair as you would want anybody to be with you. Definitely a true professional, regardless of whether he is negotiating the highest paid contract in the Big Leagues or a short stint in the Puerto Rico Winter League…he has done both for me!
He is smart, knowledgeable, pays attention to details and that makes him a great agent but above all that, he is a great guy. That is why I consider David a friend."

"I first met David Sloane around 10 years ago, while I was a 17 year old High School baseball player looking for a possible advisor/agent for myself for the upcoming MLB draft. After meeting with 10+ agents, my family and I felt comfortbale choosing David, due to his strong professional manner and very friendly persona.
After deciding to not sign a pro contract that year, I headed off to college, thinking that was the last I'd hear from him until I was eligble for the draft again. Pleasantly surprised, I found myself keeping in touch with David through the years, which showed me how much he cared about me as a player and person.
When the time came-around my junior year and the draft, I knew with no question in my mind that he was the man I wanted representing me in the Profesional ranks.
In my 6+ years in pro baseball, I have been 100% satisfied with David's contributions to myself and my career. He is truly a professional who would do anything for his clients. I have heard from people around the game that he is well respected by his peers. All my equipment requests have been met, and his advice has been very helpful to me, whether dealing with on or off the field issues.
Not only is he my agent, but he is someone I talk to during most holidays and someone my family considers a family friend. That's what I look for in an agent, someone who will represent you the right way, not the crooked way many agents are doing these days. I would highly recomemend David Sloane to any young players who are looking for representation."

"I am pleased to say David and I have been working together for over 10 years. You won't find a more knowledgeable, experienced, respected agent in the game. David has always gone above and beyond to make sure I have been taken care of not only on the field but off as well. With David you can always expect a high level of communication, honesty and trust that is unmatched. If you are looking for representation you will be hard-pressed to find someone to represent you better."

"When my son Ryan was taken with the 6th pick in the 1st round in 2003, he had been recruited by just about every agent in the business. I was glad that he chose David to represent him. Everything that has happened in the 7 years since has only reinforced that feeling.
David is very good at what he does, and has become a very good friend of our family"
--William Harvey (Ryan Harvey's father)
A note from Ryan after the draft in 2003, when he was the #6 pick in the first round:

"After having to cut ties with my first agent, I had the good fortune of being hooked up with David through a teammate. As a rookie level player at the time, David talked to me as if I were any one of his big league clients. Whenever I need something he gets it done. Very quick, honest and hard working I value David very much as my agent and also as a good friend"

"I have only been using David as my agent for a short time now but I feel confident that he is always going to do what he can to help me be successful in my career. He was referred to me by a close friend, Joe Torres, whom has been very pleased with David’s work throughout the years. David has been very prompt at responding to my text or phone calls since we have been working together. I feel comfortable having David represent me off the field, which makes it easier for me to do what I need to do on the field."

“I just signed with David Sloane a couple of months ago. In these past months that I’ve had with him as my agent, David has done everything I’ve asked. He is always willing to talk and give great advice. He cares deeply about his clients, no matter how high or low a draft pick. He is truly becoming a family friend and I am anxious to continue working with him.”

"I have been playing professional baseball for the last 7 years. I have had a couple different agents in my career, but none of them were able to get the job done in a way that I felt was best for my career. I was looking for an agent who I felt could handle this task. A good friend of mine (current teammate at the time), Matt Fox, has been a long time client of David and he put me in touch with him. Right from the start I was very impressed with David. He has been an agent for a very long time and has been through every situation imaginable from the business side of the game. His years of experience make him a valuable asset to have on my side, whether it be his knowledge of the business, or the connections he has made through his years of working in baseball. I feel like David has my best interest in mind at all times and will help me in any way possible as I move forward in my career. He has always been available to me any time I needed to talk to him, and if he ever misses my calls, he always returns them very quickly. I like the fact that he doesn't have an extremely large client list so he can focus more on each individual rather than a massive wave of players, which can cause you to get lost in the shuffle. I am very happy to have David as my agent, and I look forward to working with him for years to come."
