Reply to "Good player but high school politics means no playing time"

Politics is a loaded word on this site, in more ways than one. If I thought my son had skill I would ask my son why he wasn't playing much. His response would likely be "I dunno", and my response would be "Then go find out."

FYI, high school stats are mostly meaningless to college coaches because high school competition varies WIDELY. Imagine you are a coach, a kid says "My on OBP was .800 last year" the coach thinks, wow, that's a great number. Then the kid follows up with "Yeah, and those seniors were throwing at LEAST 65 miles per hour!"....and then the coach tries very hard not to laugh.
