Dave from, Torrington, CT, writes, “when should I invest in private lessons?”  

• Age of player
• Interest level of the player
• Financial situation
• • You can do this without spending a fortune

 

Craig from, Southington, CT, writes, “How will I know what level of college baseball I can play?”  

• I’ve the charts
• • “If you throw this hard, you can play this level”
  • Some truth, not the whole story
• Pay attention to where other kids in your school have gone/are going
• • And other kids in your league
• Ask someone you trust

 

Rick from, Milton, MA writes, “My son is a rising senior in high school, what’s the best way to get noticed?”

• It’s almost too late!
• • This process needs to start a summer ago
• Get to camps that have a lot of the schools you’re looking at attending
• • Make a list of where you want to play (realistic!!)
• Email those coaches ahead of time
• • Email them again
• Introduce yourself when you get there (politely)
• • Now you stand out from the herd

 

Travis from, Danvers, MA, writes, “when should I start lifting?”

• NEVER
• Your old school stuff (push ups, sit ups, pull ups, BW squats)
