I'm currently 5'10 215lb as I approach my final game of high school baseball without any college offers yet... but I have been getting looked at.. and I have a couple of tryouts with junior colleges and a blue jays scout team. Should I be nervous or scared? What if I don't make these teams should I keep training for next year or give up on the sport? Also I've been playing 14 years...

He might be jacked, though.

Mike Trout is like 6'1, 250.

Failing in professional baseball is extremely depressing man. Enjoy it while you can. My brother became an alcoholic and his fiance cheated on him within a month of him realizing he was never going to make it beyond AA.

how the fuck is your last game in April?

The guy that bullied me the most in high school hit like .350 in AAA when he was 25 and never got called up because he was too old and his attitude sucked

AAA is a good living.

It's below that that is mostly depressing. I mean never getting called up sucks but a solid AAA career is nothing to be ashamed of.

he played one season in AAA and age 19-24 in A-AA

I just can't imagine the cock tease to be called to AAA and hit .350 and then be advised to retire

Don't give up. There's a lot of stories of unheralded players making it.

Matt "I hit homeruns and leave" Stairs was undrafted and about the same size as you.

I would:

Get your eyes checked and get lasik surgery if needed. Baseball players are actually getting it to "correct" 20/20 vision down to 20/10.

Take advantage of the many modern training methods out there, from smartphone linked swing analyzers to analytics to weight training and plyometrics.

And just keep working.

My guess is he couldn't field a position, like any position, even first base

Journeyman baseball player life is depressing but journeyman basketball player life sounds like it owns, every decent country has a league that pays okay and you can be the one import (black) player who scores 30 points per game
