TPM he plays 1st/2nd/OF. On his old teams he usually led off and always led in steals. He is tall and fast. His batting is good, exit velocity measured last year at age 14 at 75. I just feel like he is on this other HS teams summer practice team!
I would rather have him on a lower tier team where he actually plays. What kills me is they didn’t even give these few benched kids a chance to see what they could do, 5 games in and not one inning.

I am certain he can play on the rec team, as my friend is the commissioner and they could use more players . I spoke to my son and he has no desire to spend every weekend this summer riding a bench. He loves baseball and it kills me to see him so dejected.

I just found a early email from the man that runs the league that we should not call him if our kid sits a whole game but should if he sits multiple or an entire weekend. Guess I will call tomorrow and see about that.

Thanks for the feedback.
