Actually, I found it disappointing because I do have a lot of respect for Eric Cressey and the work he does.

Does anyone know of anyone who has actually been "discovered " at a showcase?

Keep in mind I am not asking about tournaments. I consider them two different type of events.

Also, one thing to remember is that most talented players from their specific area have already been identified.

When son was in HS he was already known in the area, but "discovered" by his college program while at Jupiter. Actually, I am not sure he was actually discovered, the coach already knew who he was just came to watch him pitch.

I don't think his statement is too far off the mark.
