Yes remember we are talking about the article written and bashing travel ball. I made my comment about a reason for playing baseball on travel is to PLAY. This wasnt brought up about high school or college.
The guy that wrote the article is wrong. Why because its always the misconception that the PARENTS or PLAYER cant handle sitting. Not always the case. Many many TRAVEL coaches have understood when a player wishes to go to another team for more playing time. Who in this world doesnt want a player to get more playing time than what he qualifies for on our team.
This particular player may sit alot in hs ball, well in travel or summer ball he is not restricted to one team, he has the FREEDOM to choose and who wouldnt choose a team where he gets more playing time.
