Today, I am very excited to have Carlos Collazo on the podcast. I have known Carlos since 2010 - when he was a sophomore in HS playing baseball. Over the years we have become good friends and it has been awesome to see him grow into success doing something he loves to do.
Carlos is now the lead writer for Baseball America focusing most of his attention on the Major League Baseball Draft. He watches thousands of HS and College players each year, talks to scouts, coaches and team management about the potential of HS and College baseball players to play at the professional level. You’ll also see him on MLB network and ESPN during draft coverage.
In this episode, we dive into the idea of early sport specialization. Then into some of the things that he sees that separates good players and great players. Lastly, we talk about some of the benefits and pitfalls of the club and travel baseball circuits and what to look out for as a player or parent.
