Reply to "Tough Decision"

In Wisconsin there is a High School Spring League run by the Hitters travel program (the #1 travel program in the state, and one of the best regionally.  Gavin Lux of the Dodgers, Ben Rortvedt of the Twins, and Jarred Kelenic of the Mariners all came out of that program, as well as many other MLB and MiLB players)

Alot of kids choose to play in that League instead of for their high school.  It’s well scouted by MLB, and lots of D1 commits play in it.  It’s not an issue as far as recruitment goes.  It was definitely NOT a “red flag” for my son in his recruitment, or the hundreds of other kids who came out of that league and played in college.

It could be a unique situation that isn’t available in other states.

There are a few programs like this in FL and a bunch more on the way. I was speaking to a HS coach yesterday who was telling me he is helping someone get one started and depending on how quickly it grows he might jump ship to it permanently.
