2. The scout has connected us with a MLB Scout Team (not sure if that's what you call them) and 2020 is going to decline pursuing that opportunity, based on advise from his college coach. They told him the those MLB Scout teams for Fall Ball are more for those who aren't committed to college yet.

3. The scout has talked to his cross-checker about our 2020. 

This is a lie or the college coach doesn't know what he's talking about, which might be worse. Truthfully, unless you've been seeking out advice from his college coach he doesn't really need to know what is going on with travel ball except what his schedule is. I would keep anything scout related or draft related hush hush for now.  The MLB scout teams are among the best travel teams assembled. They are literally handpicked for major events like Jupiter and the others with 99% of  kids committed to top of the line D1s. If your son was offered this opportunity do not pass it up. It is possible that it might not have been explained properly to the college coach, but it really isn't something you need to follow up on. As long as flights, hotels, etc are in the budget - do it and do not worry about what his college coach says. If your son is good enough for these teams and is shaking hands with the right people (sounds like he is) he will always be taken care of if things go south.
