1 kid is played with Diamond Elite tonight against Rawlings and will play this weekend with them at Ripken Hope he doesn’t stay or SW loses 50% of their team Not sure DE plan on what they will do with the kid. He batted 8th yesterday and sat the bench. I know DE is short one kid cause of injury. Maybe thats why they asked him to guest. Other kids may be jumping ship and going to play there but breaker is niner aint going no where

It's fall. Other sports are on. Injuries happen. When your team is finished for the season and you're asked to play, you play because that's what ballplayers do. He's still wearing red cleats and rolling a red equipment bag. Boys make friendships when they play and think like this let boys have a chance to play together.

Further proof that the kids just want to play ball. It's usually the parents that have problems with other teams.

Injuries happen. Absolutely. Guest players for an injured player, we all get and understand that. But when you load up with 3 extra guest players, for a local MD tournament. It's called bush league. Nobody asks for a mediocre guest player. Everyone tries to get the best fill in they can. The SW kid is the best player in his age group in the state of MD. Period. Well done diamond. You did exactly what everyone thought you would. Well played.

The shockers old player is there at DE full time now. Bigbies and SW kids were guesting.

You did exactly what everyone thought you would. Well played. and yes Hats off to Rawlings. Even though it was a scrimmage. They played great. Diamond Elite didnt throw any of thier good pitching but still should of hit with that stacked line up. Rawlings was in trouble a few innings with runners on 3rd and 2nd and got out of the jam. Big ups to them. I kinda gave them a hard time for playing CBA league and smashing teams but that team can compete with some of the top tier teams. So for beating DE 2x in a scrimmages should be a nice confidence boost and let the kids know they can play with the gold teams.

Stealing, poaching, spitting game, sweet talking. It doesn't matter. The facts are, that in the middle of the fall season, 2 kids are gone from teams that they started the fall with, and now are on the same team with DE. A spade is a spade.

Parents are the ones who made the commitment for fall spring season on their teams and decided to leave during that commitment. But im picking up what your putting down

Meant to write this in my last comment Mr call it what you want. So in your opinion what do you think is going on for 2 kids to leave thier teams and go to the same team ?? Play with friends? Playstations? Lottery tickets? Casino Vouchers? Or better team ?

If they played multiple tournaments with them are they still guest players and being around DE I know they’ve beaten Gambrills without anyone else and they aim higher than Gambrills and have bigger goals than a Ripken tournament that they’ve played 10 times and have won multiple times. As does Gambrills as you can see by the tournaments they entered 2 weeks ago. So for everyone making about these 2 teams realize their both planning and preparing for bigger than this. Congrats to you both. Keep putting those kids in the best position to compete and progress
