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.

I would not suggest you get rid of HS baseball. It was your suggestion to get rid of a portion of the players season. The question is would you for the health of a player advise him not to play in the spring for HS knowing he will play in the summer and fall.
