The Northeast League Aces (also known as just the Aces in box scores) were a traveling team in the Northeast League in the 2004 season to replace the Allentown Ambassadors.

The Ambassadors' roster was dispersed around the league, and the Aces were forced to sign a bunch of free agents to form a team to compete. They finished the first half of the season in last place in the Northeast League South Division, but rebounded in the second half to finish second, albeit a distant second, behind the eventual league champion New Jersey Jackals.

For the inaugural Can-Am League season in 2005, the Aces were disbanded and replaced by a permanent team in Worcester, Massachusetts.

The logo for the Northeast League Aces is currently being used by the Alexandria Aces of the Continental Baseball League, who adopted the logo following the dissolution of the NeL Aces in 2006.
