re: Jared Mitchell's high school baseball career

He has been playing baseball for as long as the other guys on the team. I played against him when i was younger in USSSA ball. I don't understand why they have to say this all the time. The only reason they would have is that he also had to concentrate on football, but so did a bunch of our guys in high school. I'm willing to bet at least half of our players were football players as well and a bunch were even quaterbacks.
