Are You Good Enough for College Baseball?

Many services out there want to make the recruiting process seem much harder than it is. They want you to feel like you are “late” in the process and like there is a paywall between you and the college coaches.

Families pay them because the process feels like a secret. It isn’t.

In the end, one thing actually matters. Is your son good enough to play at the level he’s chasing?

If the goal is Division I or professional baseball, does he have the skill set to be there? If the goal is D2, D3, NAIA, JUCO — same question. You have to know what skills that particular level actually requires.

That is where The 3 Measurable Tools come into play — the 60 yard dash, arm strength, and bat speed. Those are the three numbers coaches start with. The chart is in The 3 Measurable Tools that shows you where you need to be in each of those areas. It doesn’t matter which travel organization you play with or how many showcases you sign your son up for if those numbers don’t match.

Get him measured immediately if you haven’t already. Write the numbers down. Next to it, write out where he wants to be in 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months. That tells you where he stands today — and it gives him something real to work toward. Use the Free Objective Evaluation if you want the grade in your inbox.

If you don’t have those numbers yet, start there. Don’t buy another service until you do. Recruiting gets a lot simpler when there’s something real to recruit.
