What 17 has done is enlisted the help of a player a year or two behind him that wants a starting spot. It then becomes beneficial for both, the older guy gets his reps in and does some teaching/mentoring, and the younger guy gets his reps plus hangs with someone older and learns.

Wow - that's a great idea, Backstop! A similar situation has evolved here - 2B has become friends with a senior OF/P who drives. So they go to the field together to long toss and hit, and I get to stay home.

I still work out every day, but I'm getting fat! It's either missing the bball workouts, or watching Paula Dean while on the elliptical machine. Can you smell the butter?

Similar to what LAball mentions, we also have a minor leaguer in town who's a great off-season hitting coach - $30 well spent!
