2010 Promo/2009 Recap

[CGould5]

did you end up getting tim barry from illinois?

[KDCALIBOUND]

For the selection process for 2010, when will the scouts be checking out the kids, throughout the season? Our HS plays fall and springs ball.

I absolutely love watching the Power Showcase stuff. It's such a good idea.

And not to mention, you guys pick the best music for these videos!

[PowerShowcase]

Thanks! The Draft Updated Promo will be out next week...keep watching!

[baseballer127]

Cool. I've subscribed so I won't miss it!

[Hommerdylan1]

do these players have to have a certain amount of home runs during their seasons and so on, or is it about just being an outstanding player?

[PowerShowcase]

This showcase concentrates on one tool really, and that is power. So home runs factor the heaviest, but we rely heavily on scouts for recommendations, so that usually weeds out the 'false positives'...If a kid has 12 HRs and he plays in South Florida, TX, or Cali, 99% of the time he's legit, but we do have to do a lot of homework if a kid has 16 HRs but plays in TN on a field w/ no fences. Each year we refine/tweak the selection process, and we are stoked about this year's group!

[JimmyLipp]

This PowerShowcase is an awesome idea. I love it. Have you ever had more than one rep from a state. Because obviously Texas might have 3 kids all better than the Wisconsin Rep so the other 2 from Texas kinda get hosed.

[PowerShowcase]

Yes, we have multiple reps from FL, CA, TX, AZ, GA, the hot beds are obviously represented heavier than Wyoming, the Dakotas, etc...

[JimmyLipp]

okay thats awesome then. Is there any age limit or do the kids just have to at least be still in high school?

[PowerShowcase]

right, just have to be in HS

[mattpa13]

you cant really go on any of these videos and have at least 1 person claiming someone on here has taken steriods. so i have a question. do you drug test before the competition?

[PowerShowcase]

yes

[02040713]

how you pick those peoples?

[PowerShowcase]

We track the top rated players on sties such as Baseball America, then consult with coaches, and get recommendation from MLB scouts.

[02040713]

ok,I didn't play this year for some problems but I'm going to my country and practice for the next 3 month,so If I'm able to be one of the first in my state I can be able to go there..good but hard at the same time because Harper live where I live....thanks you and good videos
