Algorithm recommended this. Ex-pro from the late 90s. The hardest part is staying healthy and consistent.... and be excellent at at least 3 of the 5 tools if a position player. Was hard competing in the "roid" era... couldn't imagine now. Good video!
Yea it must have been really hard to compete with guys juicing I can’t even imagine trying to keep up natural
Cool to hear it from an ex-pro! Appreciate you man
Great Video mannn seriously it shows baseball isn't just about hitting a ball But Keep Up the great work on the videos your gonna be big one day
You can look at these numbers and take them at face value, but the biggest thing you can do to increase your odds is having an incredible work ethic and access to great information and coaching.
The academy I trained at from 7th-12th grade and now coach at has 2 current MLB players and 1 alum, and at least 1 more knocking on the door. And the craziest part about it is we don't recruit or cut anyone. We are primarily a training academy, we could care less if we win travel ball games. Everyone in our area knows we work harder than anyone else, and our information is top notch. Our older teams usually dominate despite not recruiting the best players.
With that said, while MLB may be the dream, enjoy the journey. Realize it's an incredible experience just to play collegiately at any level, and once you do that you will likely have opportunities to play abroad or independent ball which is also an awesome opportunity to challenge yourself and see the world.
Start there. It takes a lot of work to become a college baseball player. If that's what you want make sure you're doing everything you possibly can, and that includes expanding your knowledge and finding different schools of thought. Find out what the leaders in player development are teaching. Driveline, Setpro, Texas Baseball Ranch. Driveline and Setpro do hitting as well as pitching. I'm not sure TBR does hitting. There are some great hitting coaches on instagram: outfronthitting, tewkshitting, colbymaybaseball, Nate Headley, Lumberyardmechanic. Antonelli has some good thoughts too.
100%. Well said. The odds are their and its up to you to get them in your favor
The chance of make the bigs is 12 standard deviations from the norm
Do you know what the norm would be? I am like 50% familiar with what you are talking about.
@@InDepthBaseballYT the norm is if you make a bell curve of all the population in the sample and find the mid point.
@@InDepthBaseballYT so then you cut 12er cent of the top end of the curve and make a bell curve of that. It is one standard deviation. Now do it 11 more times.
So to be a big league 3rd baseman. You need to be able to feild a ground ball and throw it to first base 995 times out of 1000. 30 per cent of people cant throw the required 130 ft min. Another 30 cant hit the first baseman glove acutely and then the remaining 40 cant hit. And so on for each postiin.
This is true. The highest level of baseball I ever got to was high AA ball. Gave up after 6yrs because the grind was to much for shit pay.
I feel like the pay does it for a lot of guys. Seems almost impossible to live off of
Do you ever regret giving up or not really?
@@cj6814 not anymore but it was fun seeing MLB players work there way up. Best guy that passed through was Mike Trout in my last year.
@@BenDover4meplzthat's pretty wild, how old were you when you left the minors? Was triple AAA ever talked about for you?
@@cj6814 27 and no shot at AAA at that point. Was used at a bench guy most of that year.
This is the case in just about any sport. The people that make it to the top are usually less than 1% ...that's why it is smart to finish your degree in college and then go for it. If you don't make it, you have something to fall back on, and the odds are not in your favor because you could be stopped by things like injuries. Just playing D1 in any sport is already a great accomplishment in your sport.
Totally. Any money you get to pay for your degree from baseball is already a huge W
Crushing the dreams of millions of kids. 😆
Yeah was trying to tell a Dad this who was in denial about his son being the next star.
Don't say THE MLB. It is just called MLB. Learn proper grammar!
The MLB.
