I have been amazed about the number of posts lately regarding parents posting about their players being (for whatever reason) unhappy. I am sometimes not sure whether it is the player or the parent themselves. Expectations have to be realistic.Being...

Re: College Corner
I think the hardest is the reality for us they CAN survive on their own. I sent mine off today quite a bit differently from the first two years. First year the truck was packed full, last year groceries mostly, this year, some pretzels, peanut butter crackers, water and bananas. Reason, he now knows where the local Wal Mart is, much easier just to use the debit card than mom running all over the place filling up the cart. If this is your only one or last one leaving, it leaves a hole, for a...

Re: Parents vs. Coach: Battle goes wild....
I stand corrected and apologize to Will, rz1 and pg. I haven't taken offense at the topic or the direction of the thread. I have been where this coach is. I also had a group of parents very upset with my coaching style ... (different sport than basebal) I have been attacked by a parent and the end result wasn't too good for that parent. I felt terrible for the boy. Dad bit off more than he could chew. However, the basic tenant of my questioning remains. According to whom should I be judged...

Re: What's the average income for a minor leaguer?
That's why I told you I am a "rookie" on baseball. I never played basebal before. I have very high expectation on my son. Because he is really good at current level. Hitting, pitching, fielding all around. Every coach saw him told me he is going to be a "big time player". But actually he didn't prove anything yet (as a HS freshman, he havn't played a sigle HS game yet, what do you expect?). But his talent is there for sure. I read some draft news about some player got the signing bonus from...

Re: The Bizzle
I wanted to say thanks to all the welcomers. Baseball has always been apart of my life I just never had the right attitude for it. Now that my sons have made it there life Im glad I have a place to go for a little help. Thanks to all for the plethora of knowledge you people of basebal possess.

Re: Arguing balls and strikes
Rob, was this a college game? I ask because you are quoting the NCAA rule. In Federation, a chop block occurs only when there is a low block at or below the knee of a player that is already being engaged by another blocker. I have not seen the actual foul occur too often in games that I've done. It is perfectly legal for two offensive linemen to block a defender high and low as long as it is at the same time, or if the there is a delay between blocks, the low block is the first block. Now it...

Re: El Paso Soccoro Bulldogs
It won't matter they'll sit up there and flip close pitches off and wait for the pitcher to make a mistake, In my seven years of watching high school playoff basebal there the best hitting group I've seen.... just my two cents

Re: First Year Playing Ball
I would strongly suggest that you look for a indoor basebal facility and get eveluated and take a few lessons. work on your mechanics.

Re: Labrum (SLAP) tear surgery tomorrow
Just to clarify, his doctor, college coach, and PT have said then WHEN he has the stength and ROM, he could participate in some no throwing baseball activivites. I am confortible whit all their credentials, experience, and looking out for the best interets of my son. The point of my question was does anyone have any experience with the time frame, 8 week, 12 weeks, etc. From a Junior5's perspective cathcing bullpen is a very important step. it allows him to get a feeling for the pitchers at...

Re: Sandy Koufax
Koufax attended Brooklyn's Lafayette High School, where he was better known for basketball than for baseball. He became team captain in his senior year, and ranked second in his division in scoring, with 165 points in 10 games. Koufax attended the University of Cincinnati and was a walk-on on the freshman basketball team, a complete unknown to coach Ed Jucker, the varsity basebal coach. Sandy had heard that the baseball team would be traveling to New Orleans and Florida so he thouht he would...

Re: FIRST BAPTIST CONTINUED
I don't think I over-moderate -- but you are welcome to open a poll on the subject. A moderator cannot win here --- as no one wants their views to be "restricted" in any way. And yet others send me private messages with opinions that suggest I intervene more often. **shrug** You should check out the chaos on the other sports message boards -- many of the posters here are glad to have our "structure". I welcome all feedback on the subject of over-moderation. The pay isn't really that good.

Re: Just checking
Mr. Basebal...what math? You'd rather "hope" that the pitcher will walk you? (and "hope" you win?) That tells me you don't trust your hitters enough to execute. Best of luck to your hitters.

Re: **OPEN TRYOUTS** Showcase / Travel Team
I would have to say that this team is very well put together. They have an all around approach to the way they are handling this team and it shows in their practices and meetings. I'm excited to watch my kids play for this team this year and I hope we have a great year with many more to come. The team site is awesome, whoever did their website design did an amazing job.

Re: 2014 Anxiety
I do remember the other OF that FSU signed that year, Shane Robinson...had a HUGE career with the Seminoles and now plays in the big leagues with the Cardinals (I think Shane was a fifth round pick out of FSU, maybe in 2006). I was remiss not to mention that FSU was always Chris' first choice but, going through the process for the very first time a decade+ ago and knowing very little at that point, I was intent on Chris taking several official visits that fall before he made up his mind; in...

Re: What do you say?
We are all far from perfect. But in my experience around the game I have come across some parents that push push push. And it affects the kid in a negative way. No we do not want to sugarcoat things but sometimes their is a line we cross. What if your kid goes o-4 ks with the bases loaded twice and has 2 errors? How do you as a parent approach that? Get all over him etc etc? I have seen that and it is not pretty. A kid is exposed at that at 9 and 10 and pretty soon he gets tired of that and...

Re: Interesting article on young pitchers and arm injuries.
As stated, it comes down to proper mechanics [and also if a youngster's anantomy at the time will withstand the stress]. I think the main point is this: Why jeopardize a kid's health and future?? So you can win some mythical state championship that are a dime a dozen? How many HS or collge coaches give a rat's behind what your record or BA was when you were 12?? The problem with the article is that most of the guys out there coaching think they are smarter than the "real experts" and will...
