Another way to get into shape and work on your mechanics and the new rules all at once is to find some *gasp* Fall Rec Leagues that use officials and get in on some of that. I know people will frown on working rec ball, but it is a good way to get in game shape, not only physically but mentally as well.

Currently around here the fall leagues are in full swing with most local high schools fielding teams. You get to see the same players you'll be seeing during the regular season, but probably not the coaches, as coaches aren't allowed to actually coach yet. That's both good and bad, as the parents who fill in are often worse in just about every respect than the regular head coaches. But then there are some who just sit there and say nothing.
