BASEBALL PARENTS: ⚾️👇

According to NCAA estimates:

• 472,598 high school baseball players.
• Just 8.8% advance to NCAA baseball.
• Only 2.7% reach Division I.

Now consider this...

D1 programs operating under the new roster rules generally have 34 roster spots.

Those spots aren't just for incoming freshmen. They're shared with returning players, transfers, and other recruits.

Here's what I wish more parents understood...

Your son can be GOOD ENOUGH to play at a school and STILL never receive an offer.

Why?

Because recruiting isn't simply about talent.

It's about POSITIONAL NEEDS, ROSTER AVAILABILITY, PROJECTABILITY, ACADEMICS, FINANCES, and TIMING.

A coach knowing your son doesn't mean he's recruiting him.

And a coach not offering your son doesn't automatically mean he isn't good enough.

My advice?

Study rosters. Understand the numbers. Ask better questions. Find the right fit, and go where you're wanted ‼️

Don't put a ceiling on your kid's dreams, but don't ignore the realities of the process either.

The goal isn't just to get RECRUITED. It's to find somewhere your son can DEVELOP, COMPETE, and SUCCEED.

Knowledge is power. 🙌

The DODGERs are the reason BASEBALL is growing

I made a post last night that got a lot of hate but here’s the facts…..

I WANT ALL THE SMOKE 😂 let’s hear your thoughts!

[Peter Michael @PeterMichael00]

Drew Dalton is a crazy athlete and a two-sport standout in football and baseball.

If you’re looking for an elite 2028 shortstop, keep your eyes on him. Football may have him flying under the radar right now, but I believe he’s going to be a massive asset to a D1 program—and a household name in a few years.

I’m really high on this kid. Just wait.

Drew Dalton is an elite 2028 shortstop with the athleticism to stand out on both the baseball field and the football field.

He may be flying under the radar because of football, but we believe a lot of college programs will know his name soon. We’re excited to help Drew through the recruiting process.

Keep an eye on this kid.

🚨 THE MOST UNDERRATED COACHES IN ALL OF COLLEGE BASEBALL: ADAM VRABLE 🚨

For more than a decade, Adam Vrable @avrabes has helped shape Louisville baseball working with the Cardinals’ hitters and outfielders while contributing to recruiting.

His impact is woven into one of college baseball’s most consistent programs.

[The Next Inning @TheNextInning]

Adam Vrable has spent years helping Louisville develop its hitters and outfielders, strengthen its recruiting, and uphold the standard of a nationally respected program.

His steady impact makes him an ideal fit for this series.

That’s why Adam Vrable belongs in the conversation.

Might be a HOT TAKE

but the Dodgers and what they’ve done over the last five years IS THE MAIN reason baseball is growing.

People want to see super teams. And when you have more of them, you get more great matchups and more underdogs with a shot to take them down.

If you think baseball needs a lockout, something’s wrong…..

Money helps, sure. But baseball is built on timing, consistency, and cohesion. You can spend all the money in the world, but you can’t buy those things outright. You still have to earn them.

There’s a reason we’re watching the Brewers and Rays in the World Series.

We need more super teams and more Dodger baseball. ⚾
