14-Player Batting Order
By: Brad HuotariI agree that 14 is too many on a team. 12 seems to work out the best for me. I coach a traveling team and support full roster batting as a wonderful solution for youngsters to stay active in each game. I don't want to label the opponents of full roster batting unfairly, but in my experience those who oppose tend to focus on their won-loss record to the exclusion of other important issues. I do understand the horrible feeling competitive parents have when
junior is not playing, so I see 12 batting as relieving some of that anxiety...and that is good.
My philosophy has always been "if everyone would listen to me then we wouldn't have these problems" so I would suggest to the world
that in 12 & under baseball continuous full roster batting rules. What do ya think?
