    have you contacted Rawlings and asked about a warranty?

    wilson glove

    depending on your age, and how long you plan on playing, it may be better to invest in a high quality glove. The A2000 are more expensive, they run about 250, but it can last you many many years, the only thing you'll need to do is relace it (we like to clean our gloves from time to time). I...

    The new one is on the right.

    They do look quite a bit different, but the connections were the same. I'll take some pics later.

    Yes the control panel.

    Anyone here good with motors/electronics? Jugs machine question.

    So our Jugs jr has been broken for a few years, it still works, but only fires at max speed, which according to my ballcoach is 65-63 mph. That speed is fine for travel, but playing HS ball, I need to reduce the speed (and the knob does nothing when turned). I called Jugs and ordered a new...

    Being best player on bad team, or bench player on good team?

    Not directly but I'm going to say yes because he's put us in position for these schools to see her. There's been a few connections made at showcases, a D2 school talked to her, and a top 10 NAIA team was very interested, they even pulled her off the field while she was on base and they had to...

    Being best player on bad team, or bench player on good team?

    I'd be just as happy if she went D3 or NAIA as long as her school is paid for. She's a 4.0 student, so it doesn't need to be athletic money. She's played SS, 2nd and OF. She's actually played quite a bit of SS, but probably 75% of her TB has been at 2nd base. Also FTR, the team I'm...

    My girl has played on good teams before, her 14u team was a PGF premier team, top 10 in Alliance. Even the team she is on now, plays some good competition once in a while, and her HS team faces a lot of D1 committed pitchers. My girl can definitely hit, but she doesn't have HR power, her game...

    Being best player on bad team, or bench player on good team?

    spoke to a member on the phone yesterday and got some great insight and a new perspective. For those suggesting there's other teams we could pick, you're absolutely right, I guess I left out that I do really respect the coaches of her current team, so if we left, it'd have to be a unique...

    She turns 16 in a couple months, so it's not playing up by too much. I don't see much of a difference between good 16u and 18u teams tbh.

    Being best player on bad team, or bench player on good team?

    she's a small girl 5'3, and has played on some good teams, so 2nd base fit her, but as far as her size, she has a good arm, she understands using arm slots, her arm is definitely not a liability.

    Being best player on bad team, or bench player on good team?

    that's an option, we just have heard such great things about this coach, we wanted to give it a shot and see if she could play a few years for him.

    Being best player on bad team, or bench player on good team?

    Non competitive = we get crushed versus good teams, we lack top pitching and have some girls who probably don't even belong in TB. The team practices aren't pushing my girl enough and even though she did get a lot out of it the past year, not as much now. This team is top because they're good...

    Being best player on bad team, or bench player on good team?

    Yeah, I sort of favor this option as well, and may fall back onto that, there's so many teams, I'm sure she could find a fit. The biggest benefit to this team, is his connections, he gets a lot of players to D1. All his outgoing seniors are going D1. So, even though, I'm not sure she will go...
