good luck to him.  don't worry about the size thing. my son has a friend who was on the smaller (and softer/pudgy) side last year as a frosh.  he found 6 covid inches and is 5'11" and still going now.  Son has another friend (2022) who is a 5'6" d1 commit.  dude just plain outworks others on the field and in the weight room.

We have baseball class here in a lot of the schools (TX), so it is practice. They usually schedule it as the last class of the day so it just bleeds into the after school practice.   After cuts, kids transfer out of the class.  Older guys usually know where they stand before tryouts.

It is almost like college and walk on tryouts. The coaches pretty much know who is going to be on the team. The varsity kids who are in baseball class and returning pretty much don't try out. Coach runs a separate practice for them while new kids or kids who didn't make the team the previous year are going through tryouts. 

"Voluntary" workout started on the 7th here, with official practice starting on the 18th. Tryouts are part of the practice process for JV/V, and a few have been cut already. Freshman team has official tryouts next week.

Today they have their first intramural scrimmage, 17 innings. Gorgeous day for it, with a high of 60 anticipated. Wishing parents could watch, but no parents on grounds this year for anything other than official games.
