My son is a pretty good player for his age. He's got strengths and he's got weaknesses. If he continues to work hard, grows and improves he might have an outside shot at a baseball scholarship one day but I wouldn't bet a whole lot on it.

I think it is an insult to the very few players who get college scholarships to say that a player doesn't have to be very good to get a scholarship.

There are some very good players who don't get scholarships. In some cases, they are better than some of the players who do get scholarships, but virtually all of the players who get scholarships are very, very good players and have earned those scholarships.
