Futures League-need opinions and feedback

The next town over from me has a team. They played .600 ball last summer. I've attended one or two games per summer. The roster has been D3 starters and D1 bench players? How that fits into your perspective depends on your needs.

2015 son was given a choice, coach preferred him going with 2 other freshmen at  their non-power conference D1 to one of the top Futures League teams.

The 2 position players have a strong chance at starting this spring and the P will see a good amount of action come February, IMO.

 

1- it is where their coach wants them to play

2- as freshmen, they did not have college stats to present.

3- 2 of them have had scout attention, pre-draft, etc.

Scouts have told them if they are seeing players at the Cape Cod league, it is easy to swing by to see them in New England.

4 - hopefully they will eventually end up in the Cape if they keep improving.

 

As with college, going where you will play is important.

FYI:

Another freshman is going to the Hampton's League and one to the Cal Ripken College League. 

Hear that Older kids are going to the Alaska League and Northwoods.

 

If your son is older than a freshmen,

get as much information as you can.

Sounds like your son was given a choice which is great.

My son played with the Martha's Vineyard Sharks this past summer, and loved every minute of it. He's a D1 pitcher, now a sophomore, made the Allstars with the league. As a parent, I honestly have to say it's a really great league
