I'm always willing to listen and learn
ex: I had always thought that so-called "filler players" were spread thru-out the system as needed - but have come to learn from IFdad that ALL are legit prospects, and some "fillers" are former all-american/all-conference mvp's - also that after the "cream of the crop" there's really not a whole lot of difference between a 10th round guy, 30th round guy or a free agent signee
and then - "bbscout" reasonably believes about 600 ABs with wood will start to project future ability, while "itsinthegame" can read it in about a month
sometimes the more I learn the "confused-er" I get

but anyway - maybe some will input on the "less contoversial"
part deux of the ORIGINAL Question
quote:"love to hear some opinions . . college vs pro conditioning"
I only have a feel for college conditioning/training
lifting/condtioning offseason under the supervision of a strength coach 6 days a week - (a modified schedule inseason)
offseason daily individual skills sessions (4 on 1)
30 days offseason "team" practice, skills, intersquads, etc
summer wood bat league placement
athletic cafeteria training table diet w/ meat, fresh fruit, veggies, milk, cereal, yogurt, ice cream, juice, protien shakes, nutrient bars, etc
nutrition education, kinesiology lab, computer aided motion analysis lab, video overlay analysis, vision training, and team trainer(s) and medical staff
documentation reports of the player's strength/condtioning and progress with injuries/treament from the day he arrived on campus
my knowledge of the pro routine is nil, except noting they play 140 games a season, are mostly on their own, frequently on the road, and it's often implied that fast food is the staple
thanks in advance
