Reply to "Is my son good enough to play College"

D3 doesn't give baseball scholarships. The player was invited to tryout for the team in the fall. It's possible the coach might have been able to use some sway if the kid was one of his top five or six recruits. If this, he's making the team.

You need a couple of unbiased, honest evaluations on your son's potential and where in the game he might fit in. At D3"s and JuCo's the number of people showing up for fall ball can be unlimited. A coach could choose to roster forty or fifty players. It's not just a matter of finding a place to get a uniform. It's finding a place where the player can get on the field.

A college coach isn't looking for high school stats. He's looking for physical skills. He's looking for metrics (sixty time, bat speed, throwing velocity, POP time, etc.) that fit in with the level of competition his team competes.
