The short answer - I'm sure in a few cases it has done some good, but if we're being honest it doesn't really matter. 

They are only useful if flat ground, pbr, pg, etc are retweeting them. If you were to share a video and some random local baseball guy retweeted it - great...now what? Flatground retweets your video and maybe some coaches watch it while they're on the John passing time. Maybe they put your son's name on a list, maybe the keep scrolling, maybe they never see it. 

If you want your footage to be seen, create a YouTube account with only baseball videos and include the link in your emails to coaches. 

Do both.  My son has.  He has gained college coach and RC followers at schools he is interested in from Flatground retweets.  Those schools have also communicated with him via email.  I think it's just another way for them to keep an eye on him.  Can't hurt, might help.  And it's free.
