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.

Sometimes it’s a much healthier situation than a-hole dad working w their kids

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 have buddies that take golf lessons. Is that not normal? Also, Crawfish Aquatics is a booming business in BR is that not normal? I believe Varsity Sports does running classes. Is that normal?

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)

Some people spend 5 figures a year on 10 year old baseball, and it’s dumb as frick

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

I used to think the same thing until my son got to high school. Most of the kids that get substantial playing time have had years worth of lessons and has played travel/select ball. They are ahead physically and mentally.
This comment will get bashed but it's the truth. If your kid wants to play in high school and not just sit the bench for 3 or 4 years, i strongly recommend lessons and some travel ball
