There was a poster here in the past whose son was all conference in a challenging California high school conference. The kid was a low 80’s puss thrower with great command and off speed stuff. The guy had his shorts in a bunch for years his kid wasn’t scouted by MLB or recruited by D1’s.
Aside from a low 80’s fastball the kid had bad grades. There were character traits that could only be overcome with a 90+ fastball. The kid walked on at a JuCo and got three innings. Then he was tossed off the team and out of school for dealing.
“Honest coach. I was holding it (a pound of pot) for a teammate. I didn’t know what it was.”
