Reply to "Travel Organizations Paying College Coaches?"

The problem of gatekeepers has long existed and experienced a hiccup with the development of club baseball and organizations like Perfect Game and PBR. Sounds like they figured a way around that and the allure of those tournaments may not be what they once were now? But as others have stated, the largest tournaments of the summer are seeing far too many teams competing who simply don’t have players of high enough caliber to play college baseball. These organizations exist because money talks, and the adage “a fool and their money are soon parted” is applicable here. If a travel team is considered a top national team, let’s say there are 30-50 that really fit this definition, the guys on the “A” team are not paying to play on the team. The B and C team players are funding their way. If the organization is not making an effort to get those B and C guys looks, they are kind of on their own.
