Reply to "Baseball Players Who Play High School Football"

You give up time to develop sport specific skills by being a multi sport athlete.  You also give up your off-season to a different sport and loose recovery time, both mentally and physically.  Competing year round can accelerate burn out.  Injuries are also a concern.

Conversely, playing other sports can rest specific muscles and hone complementary skills.  It can yield a fresh perspective and enhance drive.

It depends on the player and the situation.   There isn't a cookie cutter answer.  Frequently specializing is required to advance to the next level.  When to specialize depends on the player.
