My 2018 RHP got a call from a coach who is apparently putting together a team for a Perfect Game tournament in Jupiter in October. Coach said one of the D1 schools that has made son an offer recommended him for the team. They want him to come down and pitch a game. We would pay $300 and travel expenses. Is this a good opportunity? How do we take the most advantage of it? What questions should I be asking? We've never done anything like this so I'm not sure how to proceed. Any help would be appreciated. It seems slightly fishy to me.
Can your son get confirmation that that is how it went down?

My opinion is that if he isn't committed yet, what can it hurt? Limited opportunities to play in that event. If he is committed, is he a draft prospect. Like many in here have said, Jupiter is heavily a pro scouted event - and hey, that's not a bad crowd to be in front of either! Hell, I'll take your kid there!
