Reply to "Is it too late for me to become a catcher?"

Have you recently had an eye exam?  I say that because you should be able to track a Freshman pitch.

Also, i'm going to depart from the group here and say it would be hard for you to become a GOOD catcher at this point.  Could it be done, sure.  But catching requires your body to instinctively act that are in direct contraction to how it wants to act.  You really only have split seconds to decide to throw your body, extend your glove, lay out, or cover.  It's not just catching the pitcher.

Could you become a catcher, YES!  Could you pick up the gear in 9th grade and be recruited to a high level college, no.
