First off, while T was probably right, that thread needed to go, I was dissapointed, for it was a good read. I will reiterate again, the difference between what MiLB guys do and what we do...the gap is far more impressive than you could ever imagine.
Yes, over time, maybe it would shrink, but don't pretend that even for a second we could make that jump. Take for example - I played hs baseball, wasn't very good, had a lot of fun. Now, that said, give me one game in A-ball, perhaps I could lay down a bunt, or catch a really high lazy fly ball, that doesn't make me a professional player.
That said, I could probably tell the difference b/w a strike right down the middle and a ball in the dirt, but the difference, every single night, for 70 plate jobs, after a 8 hour ride and no sleep, between a slider at the knees and a fastball 2" below them? With 7,000 fans in the stands (in some places) and ex-big league managers shouting at me and $1m draft picks throwing BBs? No way.
Let's not pretend here folks, we couldn't do it, it's tougher than it looks.
