Everyone plays travel ball now though because everyone is getting a mythical full ride baseball scholarship.


The thing about football and basketball scholarships is that you have to have freakish size or speed… baseball is more accessible for most kids who don’t have that but can develop a sweet swing or hone their skills in the field, and of course any kid could have a golden pitching arm

Thing about football is it’s a national sport whereas baseball is a world sport. Lot more competition for those spots, which are already extremely limited.

WOW..you do realize the college baseball players who actually get full rides are few and far between..and the ones that do are superior athletes most of the time... LSU has given people a distorted perspective of college baseball... college baseball as a whole, especially anything lower than D1 is not filled with a bunch of talent, it's essentially glorified HS baseball with less fans because the players parents/family are not local... Also you could specialize in something in basketball or football and play D2 or D3 just as easy as baseball
