Summer ball is on its last legs and will be dead soon. Even the Cape is a shell of what it once was. Summer ball is for guys who didn't get any reps, are coming off injury or guys who just love the game and want to play as much as possible before the clock runs out. The top pro prospects and starters from the top teams are not playing, or they are playing a very abbreviated schedule. The good pitchers are staying home and If you aren't facing quality pitching, what is the point? Turn on a Northwoods game and watch how many sub 90 arms are throwing. Odds are you will see a few sub 85 arms as well. As word spreads on how bad the leagues were this year, I am not sure how many of these leagues will survive.
