In general, there seems to be very little loyalty to a team and IMO the worst offenders are the pitchers who are good but not great who think they should be the #1 and/or get more playing time. It's not uncommon for a pitcher to play for at least 3 different travel ball teams in a 11 month season. Parents and players need to do a better job of researching teams before they join and then stick with that team for the season. Once a few players leave mid-season it's starts a domino effect that many times implodes the team. What message are we sending to our kids that it's ok to break a commitment at any time if we are even a little unhappy with the situation?
