Reply to "Comparison Between Minor Leagues and Major D1"

Just read through this thread - and I still cant believe that anyone would think that a D1 - aluminum bat swinging Top 20 team could compete effectively with any level of pro ball - Including short season A.

I have certainly seen my share of both - and unless I was going to all the wrong games - there is no comparison IMO.

You could argue all day about top kids that signed after junior year - that would have remained on the team and therefore would have provided more competition to pro ball Low A teams. But that is exactly the point IMO. The cream of the crop - out of high school - and after eligilibity in college - go to the pro level.

For goodness sake - you got many college "stars" that go to the wood bat leagues in the summer - and flat out stink.

I do not understand the comparison - or the basis for the comparison.

After this post - I will just continue to read and scratch my head.

The whole debate makes little sense to me.
