Had a kid in town cut last year from JV. He had not prepared for tryouts. LHP, which I would never cut and conversation for another day. Started coming to me 2 times a week while HS was playing. Got him on a good travel ball team. Played summer and fall ball. He is now 75-77 with three solid pitches. Will probably be #2 guy on varsity this year. I told him the greatest gift the coaches ever game him was cutting him last year. Lit a fire under him and now has a great chance to play college ball. He is also hitting the ball well and became a good outfielder.
