Answer 1

try and find a travel baseball program... usually the coaches for travel baseball programs have solid resumes of coaching in college and pro ball. They know what it takes so that's what they teach you. One other thing... if you are a solid fielder and a solid hitter scouts will see that but what they really notice is hustle. If you hustle everywhere you go when you are between those white lines you are going to get noticed.

Answer 2

You need to bulk up and run and eat well everyday. Work hard and never give up and never let anybody tell you that you cant do it. Gain some muscle and work hard buddy.

Answer 3

You need to go to a showcase. The scouts there look for the 5 tools: arm strength, running speed, batting for average, batting for power, fielding
