Baseball Tips & Tricks : How to Become a Pro Baseball Player

[chiquitamarie0103]

i am a skater

[sk8freshcst]

I'm 25 years old. I hit .750 in my company softball league and was clocked throwing a fastball at 97 mph. If any pro scouts are reading this and are interested in taking a chance on me please contact dom0wnz@yahoo.com. Thank you very much.

[boomballers]

im 15 and i play travel ball aginst and with some jam up ball players the fastest player iv seen pitch hit 93 i belive and hese the best of the best i dont belive a 13 or 14 year old can hit even 85 from 60 ft much less 90

[onehitwinsit08]

I wanna know why these 12-15 years olds who throw 95 arent in the news, or on independant minor league teams. If they really are as good as they say they are shouldnt they be? Im 16 I throw 73 at the fastest with a good change and decent slider,I hit .465 my sophomore year, and am projected to start at 3rd on varsity next year. That all true, nothing unbelieveably special and I dont have to lie about anything. Portray your stats as they are, not what you wish they were.

@CTSS08 your a good liar.

[Jgreer23]

@Noahmcdx finally someone who knows what they are talking about

[CTSS08]

i play shortstop im 12 years old i hit switch and hit .700 i havent had an error since i was nine

[USCCHRIS0476]

i don't believe either of those two, below me. No 15 year old can really pitch 95, and 70 for a twelve year old? thats ridiculous

[TheElfSniper]

@USCCHRIS0476 I've played against a 14 year old from Cali who was hitting 90-92 in a game. Did he last long? Hell no. But it is possible. It's not good for them, and they seem to become burned out after a few years, but it can be done.

[EAGLE2797]

im 12 and i can throw 60 - 70 on radar and im accurate do u think in the future i might have a chance of being a pro pitcher i dont really play just one position but mostly pitcher 2nd or shortstop

[XxQU1CKSC0P3xXMW2]

Im 15 yrs old i throw 85-95 im right fielder and hit .910 im in hs is that good enough to be noticed??

[jfkhoops]

hahahahaha no way

[TheElfSniper]

@XxQU1CKSC0P3xXMW2 If you have to ask "is that good enough" then you don't throw 85-95. As for .910, all that is is 11 at-bats with 10 hits. Doesn't mean anything.

[xDr4kxKILLERx]

[JTGIskateboaring]

look at prince feilder

[blainemasterdueler]

um i cant see C.C Sabathia running the 60 yard dash in 7 seconds im sry but i just dont

[sk8planBorDie]

@blainemasterdueler he is a pitcher dum fuck

[noahmcdx]

example? Big fat, first baseman for USC a few years back, he was probably, 6 '1, 6 '2, about 250 pounds. He led the team in first to third on base hits, and stolen bases. Why? His mental capabilities & his awareness made up for his speed. He made pitchers look stupid with his jumps, because he was such a great baserunner; he knew how to hit and run and how to round second, ect.

Baserunning is a HUGE part of being successful, because it can get you that one extra base, which might count.

[noahmcdx]

He's mostly right, but these aren't like requirements; maybe if you want to be a base stealer you should have a 60 yd dash in 7 seconds, but if you could run it in 8 or even 9, that's probably fine, especially depending on your position, & if your mental game makes up for your lack of athleticism.

90% of being a successful ball player is mental. Baseball is like no other sport. Your athletic ability can't make up for mental mistakes. Effort, attitude, and awareness give you the best shot.

[perron349]

jonathon broxton cant run a 60 yard dash in 7 seconds.

[genphilip]
