Might break a few braxton’s dads hearts but let you in on a little secret. If the kid wasn’t a killer at 8 years old…. He’s not going to be at 16 with TJ surgery lol. GTFO. The guys I knew that went on to actually make money playing a sport were animals at an early age. Athletic and HATED to lose. And there’s only a handful of them and most never reached past AA or the Canadian football league. Lol TJ surgery or not make sure Braxton finishes up that engineering degree.
People have this weird idea that every travel ball parent is primarily motivated by the prospect of their kid playing in the MLB. That's simply not true. 95% of travel ball parents want to give their kid the opportunity to do something they enjoy doing with friends and provide an opportunity for their kid to make their HS team. Most understand that their kid will never play beyond HS.

It's not really the parents these days fault that this is the crappy system that has taken over the country. Travel ball is terrible for our kids long term outside of a very select elite minority and even them other factors with the select model in baseball and AAU basketball outside of the actual game are harming our kids mentally in a big way.
