Godzilla, does he love to play?  Does he like his friends at school?  What does he want his overall HS experience to be?  Would he rather be at home playing video games or hanging out at the market or the park than involved with baseball?  Is there a sport or other activity he'd rather be involved in?

 

He is a freshman.  His degree of love/interest in the game, work ethic, attitude and talent will earn his rightful spot in the program soon enough.  Every HS program has their strengths and weaknesses, none perfect.  But there is something very special about HS sports, trials and all.  He'll have plenty of travel options outside of the HS season. 

 

Stick around this site.  Search past threads on any topic. Try to take any criticism constructively.  I think you will find it to be a tremendous tool to help you navigate the years ahead as a dad or mom of a baseball player.
