What's Jake Fraley up to? I seem to recall him playing for the Reds a few seasons ago.

they’re not traveling hundreds of miles every week to go play.
Very few travel teams are doing this until you get the the 13/14/15U national teams.

Academies and travel ball are different. Academies help develop players. The guy running the travel Ball league couldn’t care less about development, all he wants is your check.
Sure, if you pick the wrong organization. Believe it or not, travel ball is just like many other things in life. There are people involved in it for the right reasons and there are those that are involved to exploit others. Choose carefully.

And yet a majority of the players in MLB are from poor Hispanic countries. Obviously the travel ball thing ain’t working that great.
Those Dominican kids are going through training programs that would make the travel ball kids here blush. There's a reason the MLB has academies set up down there. Despite what you may see on IG reels, those kids are not making to the MLB playing stick ball in a dirt street. The MLB realized long ago that getting into those communities and providing legit facilities with legit training as a "way out of poverty" would pay off dividends. The kids in those academies eat, breathe, and sleep baseball.

The ones that try to squeeze to the front are bad, but just as bad are the ones that patiently wait their turn and once the row in front of them exits they THEN decide that it is an appropriate time to grab their bag from under the seat, put away their laptop, grab their jacket, take off their headphones, all while standing in the aisle. Disembarking an airplane makes me irrationally angry at other people.

In your fit of hormonal rage you've made assumptions that are not stated in the article and completely fabricated other facts. You keep saying that he chose to go chase tail instead of protect his kids. Did you read the article?
Man goes to bar on Sunday night. Wife finds him in a car with another woman and shoots at them, hitting someone (presumably the woman in the car). Man calls cops and gives statement at scene. While giving a statement woman kills their kids and herself. Exactly at which part of the story did he decide to chase tail instead of protect his kids? He can't just up and leave the scene of a crime that he witnessed.

If a young moderately attractive teacher is coming to school in a student's football jersey, you already know what's happening.

Maybe it's just me, but these movies would have been A LOT more boring if the dinosaurs never got out and caused panic and chaos.

Well, yea. It's a movie about dinosaurs.
It would be pretty difficult to come up with an interesting movie plot involving dinosaurs in a modern day setting without these things.

She's one of the few from that early 2000s era that has not gone completely batshit crazy ala Brittney Spears and Amanda Bynes.

It's comedy. Shane Gillis made fun of one of the black lady's husband committing suicide. Several people joked about Pete Davidson's dad being killed in 9/11. It's not meant to be taken seriously.

The top ten states with the longest shorelines, according to NOAA data, are:
Alaska: 33,904 miles
Florida: 8,436 miles
Louisiana: 7,721 miles
Maine: 3,478 miles
California: 3,427 miles
North Carolina: 3,375 miles
Texas: 3,359 miles
Virginia: 3,315 miles
In what world does Louisiana have over double the amount of shoreline than California.

I would assume that when we shift the infield to the pull side, the plan would be to pitch middle-in to encourage the batter to hit into the shift . (But maybe that is an inaccurate assumption)
That is an inaccurate assumption. Pull heavy hitters are typically pull heavy hitters regardless of where the pitch is located and often times you want to avoid throwing middle in because that's what they're looking for.

It amazes me that these people can be convinced of such atrocities without drugs.
They are born into it. From birth, they are taught that the "outsiders" are all out to get them and that their way of life is the only way to get into heaven. It's not hard to imagine warping the minds of young kids when they are taught these things at a young age.
Christ…..we have some absolute idiots on here.

What in gods name do the need FOUR cameras for on that field? Two douche bags running with him filming. His stupid camera on his head and whoever is recording this video.
This is the Pottstown Scout Team. They are nothing more than social media influencers. The coaches are all influencers and they pick the best kids across the country to go play against really good competition and film it for social media, which is why there are all the cameras.
The team is legit and will have future big leaguers. The homerun celebration is over the top, but they are encouraged to do that for clicks.
