Fenway…I do not believe they are trying to recruit LAX players to the area. Posting updates to the team’s blog or Twitter feed is likely a way to support and celebrate the accomplishments of the players. But the savvy coach there clearly orchestrated the announcements to show some caution and respect to the academic schools involved.

My son has a HS friend who received numerous offers to pitch for major D1 programs by the end of his sophomore year, when he was clocked by scouts hurling at 93 mph. This kid was also drafted by the Padres…but chose to attend college, instead…where he plays both hoops and baseball. This young man is on track to graduate in 3 years…and will likely go pro. Crazy skill & work ethic…and great guidance from both his parents and the school.
