First -We actually worried about son never sitting the bench and never being challenged to get playing time. In our area it was not likely to happen - so we accepted a couple invitations for him to fill in on some much older teams for a game here or there. He sat the bench some - learned he did not like it - worked harder - and gained a new appreciation for the number 11 - 14 guys on his travel team!

Second - if you have no passion for baseball because you are not a starter - you do not really have a passion for baseball - just a passion for spotlight and praise - thats quite a problem.
