@TPM posted:The amount of games is designed that way to keep them busy. No drinking or going to parties.
The travel part is designed to let players know what milb is like. If your sons don't like games almost every night, no place to stop and eat they won't last long in proball, although it's gotten better.
Dramatically better. They were served sandwiches with mold on the bread, stayed in a hotel where the water was brown. There is ticking it out but recognizing that parts of it suck. Ours was worse because the host family was not a good fit for the program. I had no idea (son never mentioned it) until I went to the last game and the director came up and apologized profusely for his experience. Then called me again when we got home and said they would never be allowed to host again. Some kids have great experiences. I would call his valuable but not good. The game part was good and he did well, I just wish I had known about the other parts because I could have assisted with food delivery or something.
