Reply to "recruiting advice"

My son's pitching has really excelled the last couple of seasons.  Opportunities have come to pitch on top travel teams.  He was a very strong hitter through freshman year of HS, but got very few at bats this past season.  The "opportunities" as a pitcher came at the cost of at bats.  While the pitching stands out, some coaches have told him he also has a D1 bat.  He has committed as a pitcher for college, and is comfortable with that.  He knows he can hit.  At the urging of his high school coach (and myself), he is structuring his fall so he can hit in every game.  He hopes to hit middle of the lineup for his HS team the next two years.  They have a chance to go deep in the Texas HS playoffs.

BossDude, I put that out there as a reminder you have a couple more years of high school.  Hit as long as you can.  Win district in high school.  Go deep in the playoffs.  Win a state championship.  Work towards your college goals, but don't miss the fun you can have right now in high school.
