[quote=Anonymous]Early puberty/height/bulk is almost EVERYTHING in baseball development It's frustrating to watch. If you can get to 6'2"' by age 13 you're golden and will be recruited to the top level teams and once you're there it's hard to be knocked down. If you're under 5'4" at 13 you better be a rockstar player with cat-like reflexes and even then it probably won't be enough. I have seen so many superiorly talented smaller kids get overlooked in favor of taller/larger boys. Once you're on the road to the showcase teams it's relatively easy to ride along if you go to practice and do some training on the side. If you're not on this road (because you're still small at 13/14) it's pretty much impossible to ever catch up. [/quote]
