He usually needed to get 4-6 outs an inning due to the poor level of his teammates and it DID NOT help his composure, competitiveness, confidence, etc...it actually brought his level of play down to that of the competition and teammates.

That statement alone...gives me much pause. THIS...to me, means your son probably needs to NOT be on varsity. The older kids will never put up with this...never.

A freshman/sophomore on varsity must toe the line...no loss of composure, no negative emotion. Team player all the way...happy to be there.

I really don't care what is said about what I've said above...I have talked to enough HS coaches, college coaches and scouts to know this is simply not acceptable. He needs to work this out before he is put on a varsity stage.

Sorry for the blunt-ness. Just the way I see it.
