The 2016 American Athletic Conference Baseball Tournament will be held at Bright House Field in Clearwater, Florida from May 24 through May 29. The event, held at the end of the conference regular season, determines the champion of the American Athletic Conference for the 2016 season. The winner of the double-elimination tournament will receive the conference's automatic bid to the 2016 NCAA Division I Baseball Tournament.

All eight baseball teams in The American will be seeded based on their records in conference play. The tournament will use a two bracket double-elimination format, leading to a single championship game between the winners of each bracket. South Florida claimed the seventh seed over UCF by virtue of owning the third tie-breaker (season series tied 3-3; both teams 0-3 versus Tulane; USF 2-1 versus East Carolina, UCF 0-3 versus East Carolina).
