Here’s my thought on it. Baseball and softball scholarships are rarely full rides. Investing the money you would spend playing travel ball on your kids education fund. Most would come out ahead and have the kids college paid for by graduation. There’s never a full ride for baseball. 11.4 scholarships to be split between all the recruits. Pitchers get the most percentage and then what’s left will trickle to position players. Now if you are a round 2 or better draft pick out of high school and choose to forgo the pros to go to college then you might get a full ride. Maybe. Other than that it will never happen. True, but if you’re good enough they will find a way to pay for your school through various other scholarships or grants to supplement what baseball doesn’t pay for. I thought you fellas were talking about travel ball for college exposure. Until the kids have all hit puberty those tournaments are just for fun but there’s nothing wrong with that either. I will say those kids from the Dominican aren’t playing for fun, they are playing to get their families out of poverty.
