Of course it doesn't make this room, nor any practice a moot point. I didn't say that if a kid doesn't have the ability to play at the MLB level, or even the D1 level, he shouldn't practice. What I AM saying, is that all things being equal, that it's very apparent by a particular age, how much gas a kid has in the tank. Does that mean they should stop playing ball? Of course not, but at the same time, we have to come to terms with the fact that even if that kid were to be exposed to every known way of explaining"rotational anything, it aint gonna matter..."HE IS WHAT HE IS" I mean up until what age do you work with someone before it becomes very apparent that there's only so much there?
