@SpeedDemon said (among other things), “I pity college baseball recruiting coordinators”

As a way to illustrate her point I want to suggest a challenge to anyone willing to take it. Go to a youth baseball game (HS, 15u, or 16u) that features 2 teams you know absolutely nothing about. Don’t do any research and don’t get information from parents in the stands. Watch the game a try to determine who should be recruited, what position they should be recruited for, and why. It will not take long for you to understand how difficult that is to do. And when you understand the difficulty you will realize how absurd it is that some parents expect their son to be “discovered” at 16u WWBA.
