Use the Free Objective Evaluation to see where your son’s skillset currently places him, then input different skill levels to see where he needs to be to reach the level of college he wants to play for. Guide him through the process and help him understand. Don’t just act like his agent. Mentor him and help him build the relationships he needs. You just sit next to him and keep him on the right course.
College coaches do not care how many wins you had at the 13-year-old level. They don’t ask what organization he played with at 15. They only care about finding a player who can help them win games — skills, athleticism, and character.
The tools come first
College baseball recruiting is a non-starter if the 60, the arm, and the exit velo don’t match the schools on the list. Write the numbers down. Compare them to the level he actually wants. Then decide whether you need more backyard work or a school list.
How the process actually works
He sends the email. You sit next to him. A short video, one coach at a time, and trusted eyes — not a recruiting service blasting 400 inboxes. D1 staffs generally cannot contact him until August 1 of junior year. That is not a reason to buy a package at 13.
After there is something real to recruit
Visits, offers, scholarships, and the draft only matter once the tools are honest and the kid can own the conversation. Playing time, a degree he’ll use, and a staff you can trust beat a hoodie.
