In this age of "year-round" baseball, is anyone really not ready to go? I know position players probably tend to play more during the "off season" than a pitcher, but I honestly don't see high-level players in this area completely shutting down any more.
I agree on the "knowing your players" aspect of your post though.
A lot of guys from that team were just coming out of football. Two of their top arms just ended their football season, one didn't pitch and the other threw two pitches. Pretty common for guys to be off from August through December for football around here.
Interesting, I don't know any college prospect level baseball players who still play another sport.

One of the kids off of that team is committed as a two sport player. Two others have multiple baseball and football offers. Those are just the kids that I know of. Football is big in the South so there are a lot of kids that play football and baseball.
