Chance For MLB??

Question

Hey im a 13 year old pitcher and i throw 75 mph and got a great curveball,change up i already have my high school baseball coach asking me if i am gonna play baseball when i get into high school but i was just wondering if i throw that hard when im only 13 then would u think i have a chance of joining the mlb or even playing for a farm team and im jw but how much do u get paid for being on a farm team

Answer 1

Do you throw 75 mph on a Stalker gun? If so, then you are well on your way to putting yourself in position to be drafted and sign with a major league club. There are things though that you can still do to improve your performance as you will need to be throwing at least 87 mph to gain any interest from professional scouts.

I have created a website service that is adding information daily about baseball and techniques and best practices. I suggest you take a look at the articles "Pitching," "Videotaping," and "Why You Will Never Improve" as they have great information pertaining to pitching.

Please feel free to email me with any questions at [e-mail]. This is a professional service that I provide for the public so that we can educate kids just like you who are trying to pursue their dreams. Good luck and hope to hear from you.

Well, 13 is pretty early to really tell. As you get older, your body will certainly change and added muscle can actually hurt your chances if you aren't trained properly. However, if you work hard it certainly sounds as though you've got great stuff now. Although farm players don't get paid nearly as well as the big leaguers, you'd have an alright life!

Answer 3

u may have the speed but how accurate are you?  just keep working hard and it could pay off.

Answer 4

It depends on where you get drafted for your pay. If you're not drafted high, you will be paid poorly.

Answer 5

kind of early to tell as long as u stick to it you should make a minor league team.i think with a minor league team i f ur good its probably 3 or 4 million for like 5 years.(not per year)
