Draft Day

I highly doubt that the kid that plays less because you added someone to your roster will be happy about a kid being added 20 games into the season. Is it really about development or doing everything in your control to win and tell everyone how good you are?

Keep selling your soul and tell yourself that this kind of BS is good for the team.

How do you want to be remembered? I don’t have a kid in this age group. I just come on here for entertainment reasons.

I have noticed that they are never looking to bring in new 1st and 3rd baseman. I’m buttuming that they are already developed?

Dont know exactly what kid left what team or who stole who be here is my 2 cents regarding poaching ,
kids switching teams ,guest players etc.


When teams have tryouts for spring there is nothing wrong with cutting existing players or adding to the roster. Many organizations advertise open tryouts and some say they are looking to add a player or 2. Travel baseball is made up of “select” teams. If your kid played 2nd base the year before and a better 2nd baseman tries out would it be
fair to the new kid to not put him on the team or make him switch positions?

The ethical thing for parents to do if you want your kid to switch teams is to do it during the summer (or fall for some teams) tryout period .
It gives the existing team the chance to replace your kid. Even if your kid is a stud and can’t really be replaced at least they can fill the roster so the rest of the team can continue to play.

Parents who pull their kids off teams over the winter or even later (unless extenuating circumstances) cause a domino effect.Their kid leaves the team his old team has to find a new kid
and a vicious cycle ensues. Have some decency parents- switch teams every year if you want just show some decency and leave during the tryout period.

Regarding guest players- if teams feel the need to do it need to be upfront with everyone beforehand. Since most teams are quite expensive not right for guest player to take time from current player. Now if a team wants to play in a PG and brings extra kids so no one gets worn out understandable long as coach is transparent.

In an ideal world coaches from the top teams should talk (maybe they do) and even work something out if so they could lend each other a player or two if one of them had big tournament( long as they both weren’t playing that weekend of course)

Youth (especially up to 12u maybe 13u)baseball in MD is very competitive. I will say this for those who have kids who are not in high school yet.
Your HS coach doesn’t care what you did in Cooperstown. He doesn’t care if your kid played on a top 5 team at 11u.He doesn’t care if your kid threw a 2 hit shutout or what his batting average was.
He doesn’t even care what his best position is - he has to take the kids he has and give them the best chance he has to win.
And you don’t need to play on a high level showcase team at 12-13 to be a excellent HS player.

Enjoy the nice weather everyone

Never play travel ball and play D1? Ok.

He played for api and then showcase baseball (travel ball) numb nuts.

Gambreeels did it again... taking kids in the middle of the season from another team... say it ain’t so!

Stay far away from lying Lee and “let’s rank the top 20 kids so I can see my sons name” Stevie ohhh and Juan Juan look at me with our trophies!

We’re the ones you’re speaking off. Instead of hiding behind a screen name talking sh**, feel free to call me. 240-416-7007. Or you can see me face to face and we can talk. You guys waste no time making a post when not knowing ANY FACTS.

Lee didn’t come to us. Steve didn’t coke to us. WE WENT TO THEM. So get off their nuts and troll else where. Or man TF up and call me.


This was posted on page one of this post.

We didn’t take anyone’s player get your information correct. How’s Lee a liar?

Oh and btw the only reason I even made that suggestion was everyone wants to cry about the rankings about a teams rankings, give kids the credit. They work hard and should be recognized.

You must be super salty either your team isn’t in the top 10 or it’s that time or the moth.

I don’t coach fo any accolades I don’t get paid unlike a lot of “trainers or coaches”. I do it to help young men become better ball players and make it to the next level. And you don’t have to like me I give zero F’s. I still have parents and players I’ve coached in the past say how much I’ve done for them and thank me. My style may not suit you and that’s cool but I know that I know the game better than 99% of you clowns 🤡🤡🤡🤡.

And if ya think you guys get under my skin that’s cool cause ya don’t this forum is a joke and way to pbutt time while I’m dropping a ✌️.

Keep Throwint shade and Lee Juan myself and Gambrills it’s just showing the jealousy you have.
