MLB 08: The Show

Featured Replies

oh im a high school pitcher and ive been rehabbing too i didnt wrestle lol but ya i play 1B and pitch! imma a junior this year so i think theyll be some scouts at our games this year

 

 

nice what high school u go 2

 

 

gateway its down in southwest florida

 

where like in West Palm beach or somewhere over there lol

 

 

lol west palm beach is southeast

And, let the position choose you...

 

 

honestly I know it sounds weird but I started out in the IF, playing 3rd... I wasn't bad, but it wasn't natural... moved to Left, felt much better, then... moved to Right and I didn't have to think, it just came natural..

 

... until... one game there was a ball lined to RF it was the last inning, we were up by 1, they had the tying run on 2nd with 2 outs, ball gets lined out to right, i get it on the hop gun it into 1st (The kid hitting wasn't a speedster, but had ok speed) the ball beats the kid to the bag, but our 1Bman didnt touch the bag...

 

... I didnt see a game of OF for the rest of that year... why? I got moved to being a pitcher because they saw I could throw...

 

 

.... needless to say, it was totally different and it took me quite a while to adjust....

 

 

 

 

... but like I said let the position choose you

HHAHA good story

sucks your first baseman was a dee

like natuarally i like playing 3rd

I have quick feet and a strong arm but my reactions r not exactly fast

I started playing 1st when i was 12 and i played great i made 2 errors in 16 games and i made the allstar team butt......

i hate 1st its so boring and i get PO'd when there are some of the crappiest throws in the world that are not even catchable and the coaches and my dad always tell me to get off the bag

i started playing outfield this year when i started practicing with the highschool team its kinda weird in RF in basically like jeremy hermida in Center and Left im Like Cody Ross

(like i cant catch balls or get to them in RF because of the way they tail or keep flying)

and then there is pitcher

I learned to throw 5 pitches that move because i throw below avg speed

i way pretty good in the summer in my 9 appearences

but im losing my touch as a pitcher because i dont work on it unless im in school and when i pitched last week for the 1st time in like 3 weeks i walked 6 in 2 1/3 inngs but i got outta both inngs(double and triple play lol)

 

so idk now i guess i let my coaches decide for me but i wanna pitch in highschool becuase its my best bet to play almost everygame and im basically only gonna start at 1st on my travel team so ill stay in shape with the bat

HHAHA good story

sucks your first baseman was a dee

like natuarally i like playing 3rd

I have quick feet and a strong arm but my reactions r not exactly fast

I started playing 1st when i was 12 and i played great i made 2 errors in 16 games and i made the allstar team butt......

i hate 1st its so boring and i get PO'd when there are some of the crappiest throws in the world that are not even catchable and the coaches and my dad always tell me to get off the bag

i started playing outfield this year when i started practicing with the highschool team its kinda weird in RF in basically like jeremy hermida in Center and Left im Like Cody Ross

(like i cant catch balls or get to them in RF because of the way they tail or keep flying)

and then there is pitcher

I learned to throw 5 pitches that move because i throw below avg speed

i way pretty good in the summer in my 9 appearences

but im losing my touch as a pitcher because i dont work on it unless im in school and when i pitched last week for the 1st time in like 3 weeks i walked 6 in 2 1/3 inngs but i got outta both inngs(double and triple play lol)

 

so idk now i guess i let my coaches decide for me but i wanna pitch in highschool becuase its my best bet to play almost everygame and im basically only gonna start at 1st on my travel team so ill stay in shape with the bat

 

Id say ask your coach if you could field extra ground balls after practice one day at 3rd and keep doing that get your reactions up if that the position you like playing most. But if you work on all of them you can be used as a corner IF/OF utility man.

 

Dont try to take a position because you will be playing the most or w/e... if you get put in a back-up role and get a pinch hit here and there.. do it...

 

The goal is more important than the role. If you have to be in a role that requires you to sit on the bench and only getting to start 1 of every 3 games or so, eventually your coach might see some more value and give you the nod for a player that is struggling (again, upside of improving at all positions... utility guys are valueable)

 

Now if you are going to be pitching... like starting pitching... Id say be careful with your arm...

no i wouldnt start yet i havent gone past 3 innings in any of my appearences but ive gone 3 3 times.

 

But id be the 2nd Freshman of the bench if we needed to pinch hit

but i would be the 1st IF

w/e im just gonna play and let my coachs put me where they fell im best even if i have to DH lol
