Good luck....but it would help you tremendously to put a little more info....
Where do you live and how far are you willing to go to play
Height, Weight
17U this past year....or next summer
fastball velo
I see you are in Marietta, GA I'm in Woodstock, where have you tried?
East Cobb has 6 - 17u teams, did you got to the ECB tryout? 6-4-3 has two 17u teams, and don't forget as a 17u you can play 18u!
As far as getting on a team that will help you go somewhere...what do you mean by that? If your intention is to join a team that gets scouted and poof you have a scholarship that is unlikely as any team that has highly scoutable kids is likely set.
Look into attending a showcase or prospect camp. If you can't travel far there is one called the GA Fall top 96 prospect camp being held at 6-4-3 in Marietta in November, here is the link.
Do you have any idea of your velocity? What kind of pitches can you throw?
Velocity as of now but I'm going to get clocked today at my bullpen
Have you checked out Team Elite? They have quite a few teams in your age group. Sometimes Pitcher Only spots are less expensive than position players. If you are open to PO, I would talk to teams about that.
As far as rosters being filled, many teams will add a player at any time if they think the kid can help them win.

I'm in Woodstock also. What school does your son go to?
I don't want to hijack this thread, I'll send you a Dialog :-)
