I don't think anyone ever said that playing in the summer and fall was a bad thing. The post is questioning the over training that follows these. To eliminate high school ball is exactly the kind of thinking that scares me. Is baseball only for those that may get to play in college? That number is few. Or is it about teaching young men life lessons, making lifelong friendships and experiences while learning a skill and about competition, drive, goal setting, dealing with adversity and on and on. If you want a factory, you may be misguided.
