there is a big difference in being a "pro" baseball player, and being a "Major Leaguer". You could spend your career in Single A baseball and be a "pro" player.
Difficult, but not impossible. Work hard, and you can get there.

Originally drafted by the Mariners and was known then as David Arias.
Traded to the Twins for Dave Hollins in 1996. He played with the Twins until 2002, when they non-tendered him after the 2002 season - fearing he would get a big raise in arbitration.
He then signed with the Red Sox and has been the heart and soul of their line-up since.

I haven't played baseball since 5th grade and I am currently in 10th grade and I wanted to try out for baseball in spring. Can somebody give me any suggestions on how I could get better (again) by then.

Do you have to start at lower ranks and work your way up? Do you have to take a special training class?

How can you even get started at a lower level. My teenage son is interested in this and I want to provide him with this opportunity.

All major league franchises have open try outs with there minor leagues teams. Your best bet is to contact the local minor league franchise owned by the major league team and see what their schedule looks like.

please im 15 years old... i play on travel all star and high school teams
i play shortstop, and i usually hit 1 or 2 or 5 or 6
i have power at certain times and never strike out swinging..
im decently fast running around the all the bases in 17.1
i have a very good glove and make alot of plays that are called "web gems" i have great range... but sometimes have trouble on little slow rollers.. or slower balls hit right to me
im starting to work out and run everyday
i see david dejesus's (centerfielder for royals) dad for hitting instruction and i do fielding by myself
sometimes im streaky with my fielding but when im on im on
i would just like to know what can i do to be better at my position or at hitting and how can i improve my chances of making it to the big leagues
is there any scouts looking for 16 year olds in america as they do in the caribbean and how can i get noticed, get better, and sneak my way into the big show
i am willing to do anything to capture my dreams
