Reply to "Is HSBBW moving to CBBW?"

... I can tell you that I’ve never been involved with a HS varsity fall ball program that isn’t filled with players and parents hoping to impress the coach for the spring. More than any other time, fall HS baseball is when players get pretty much equal opportunity to show off their skills and try to get on the coach’s radar to maybe beat out someone ahead of them.

 

This is true.  Fall ball  can be awesome.  But what has been above is true - the site is organic, and it is what the users make if it.  If you or I or anybody else wants to post about 2014 HS Fall Ball nobody is stopping us.   

 

But to repeat myself, it's hard to have a conversation about things that are of a burning interest to me but nobody else knows about. For example, our HS's starting SS graduated and a returning Senior starter is slated to transition from 3B to take the job.  How's that going to go?  And who's going to get the 3B job?  Our excellent C is now playing at a D2, so who gets his job?  Last year's backup?  A Junior coming up from JV?  Or does one of the returning IF's transition to C?

 

(I can't imagine how anybody here would know or care about the answers to those questions.  But just in case:  a) M____ is a natural SS and will do great. IMHO he should have been there last year. b) V_____ will probably get the nod at 3B, but his approach sucks - he tries to pull everything, so R___ may take it from him at some point. c)  No good options there.  S____ can't catch a strike, and B___ can't throw worth #$%^.  If I was coach I'm hoping that a stud freshman or transfer shows up the first day of practice.)
