Reply to "when a college player gets asked for a meeting from scouts from MLB team..."

It’s a pretty intrusive process, but my perspective is from 2015 - 2017. Please tell me that they no longer do paper surveys? The Kid thought the first couple were fun, but after that he pushed that job to his administrative assistant…

My favorite question “Has anyone in your immediate or extended family died before the age of 50, and if so how?” I thought, hell if I croak now that I’m past 50, it’s no big deal…

My only counsel is that as a parent you give as much advice as the ball player wants, the last thing you want is to be responsible for a choice that doesn’t end well. It’s a huge life choice, and it needs to be 100% the decision of the person that it’s going to impact.

On that note, my kid chose different than my counsel on the draft twice - and I’m so glad he followed his heart.
