I will add, it is amazing what young players are doing today. I played all through high school and had several JUCO offers (FL) but decided to join the military after High school. I also played catcher like my son does. He is a more technically/fundamentally sound player at just under 14, then I was when I graduated. He may not have the strength and power that I had then. But I would say he is already a better "player" then I ever was.

Only thing I ever get upset about is when he gets down on himself after a mistake. He is very competitive (like his mom LOL). That is the only thing we ever talk about after games. It is a learning process and I am just hoping it is something I can help him outgrow. He is reading "The Mental Game of Baseball" right now, and I think it is helping. (Great book, highly recommend).
