But has the ex d2/d3 college baseball player personal coach been discussed any? It seems this is the missing link from braeylyn playing RF batting 9 hole and SS in the cleanup spot. Everybody has to go to their own hitting/pitching coach l. Anybody else noticed this?

You don't believe a professional coach who played college baseball can be helpful in developing players?

Nope only you.
Looking for a catcher coach for my little girl Sapphire though

My buddy told me best.... “a kid should learn a curve ball the same way he learns about sex. From some retarded 12 year old on the playground who doesn’t know what the hell hes talking about.”

Good thing I played baseball or I wouldn't know WTF you were talking about.

Yep. Buddy of mine takes his 2 sons (12 and 9) to private pitching and hitting lessons with some former player/coach once a week pretty much year round. He wont tell me what it costs. I always give him shite about it. He thinks it is a completely normal and reasonable thing to do.

Your g/f lose any weight today?
If she did, she’ll end up fricking that coach

If your kid doesn’t have a pitching coach, batting coach, dietician, and personal trainer by 7 years old then you’ve already failed him as a parent. You, as a parent, doesn’t know what it takes to make him the best.

Jaxon my 7 year old is getting tommy johns surgery in June. He’ll be ready for fall ball.

I can think of no worse way of spending a weekend than baking in the summer sun for 2 days watching stage parents yelling at their kids and then drinking away my sorrows with people I’d otherwise not associate with next to a crappy pool at a marginal hotel all evening knowing full well I’m pissing away thousands of dollars because there’s no way my kid will actually make it to the “next level”

I give hitting lessons and help with my nephews team when I am in town. The kids appreciate it and I enjoy it. Not sure what your problem with it is.

Naw baw. Around Baton Rouge we have plenty of former Tigers around to coach. Some of them even made the Show.

They love the travel ball lifestyle because their kid isn't athletic enough for AAU baskeball (a sport that actually has scholarships)

I don’t waste my money on lessons. I teach him myself. LilPerm has a 89.3 WAR this year in travel ball.

My son, 12, is ending his travel ball career this year. He ended with, I think, 31 medals, two trophies, and a ring.
He’s taking his talents to his 7-12th boys school where he’s destined to set many records. Football, soccer, track, lacrosse, sailing, and maybe basketball.
Travel ball did him well though, he’s got grit and he’s ready to play all of the sports they’ll let him. Can he get 4 varsity letters his freshman year, maybe not...but he’s sure going to try.
Here he is Tuesday night at the regional private school track meet.

Friend at work says his daughter Bayli has her own hitting corch:
The son Trysten has his own pitching coach
A lady work says her daughter Bayleighh has an in-field fielding coach.
Bayli and Bayleighh are on the same team

Fun fact. I had a former MLB pitcher that coached me in pitching up until I started high school. Enormously helpful and taught me a wicked slider.
He was our next door neighbor and would coach me in the back yard in exchange for beers out of our garage fridge. Even helped my dad build us a pitching mound out back.

I only think this is crazy if the parents can’t afford it and/or the kid doesn’t want to do it. I was involved in travel ball and private lessons as a kid and I fricking loved it.

Not mine, they call him The Natural
