Quote:The problem with a lot of kids (and college ball players (not much difference)) is that too many people tell them they're good, but not enough people tell them they're not good enough.
I don't know enough about what happens in AAA and AA ball to know if they are taken advantage of there of not. I could see where some players might be strung along on wishful thinking.

Sort of like the Nashville game. You stay in the shadows and write hits for us, and when you've done your time, if you are still marketable we'll make you the flavor of the month.
