I'd hate to have been Lou Gehrig or Cal Ripken's replacement.

You have received some good suggestions and comments. I'm sure it is no consolation but at least it sounds as if he is behind a quality player. I'm sure a lot of people have seen instances where you have a quality sophomore for example, playing behind a senior who has been a loyal "teamer".

In Iowa they play summer high school baseball. A mediocre to bad coach can really hurt a player since it is likely they are their only coach during these formative years. At least in the other states you can choose your summer coach and team.
