hi everyone, baseball starts here on Monday. I love all the info i get from this site and rarely if ever post anything. However, no matter how wrong we think it is that scouts focus on bigger players, it is a fact. our son is a junior and 6'6" and still growing. He played on one of the better 18u teams in florida this past summer. He was an average player on that team. Any guesses who got the bulk of the attention at the tournaments? I don't say it's right or fair but that is how it is. that doesn't mean a short kid has no chance but they will find it harder to garner attention. thanks for all the great info you fine people share with everyone every day.....by the way baseball starts here on Monday. i grew up in Ohio so i can sympathize with all the people up north.
