The day has arrived. For the first time in his life, my son is facing getting cut from a sports team. He's a junior and the school has no JV baseball team. Its varsity or bust and the varsity team has 7-8 returning players. That means of the 10th grade team from last year, only 6-8 will make the varsity this year. 2 or 3 kids are decent pitchers, so that almost guarantees a spot. So, from what I can see, there are about 5 spots for a dozen kids. He's a well above average infielder, defensively speaking. His average last year was about .300, which is not good for a high school player IMO. The top kids usually hit around .500. It will be interesting to see how it shakes out as some good players will get cut.
