Build yourself a custom Asian spec Gloveworks glove with their Pro-Steerhide leather, you absolutely can not beat it for the money, plus the Asian spec gloves have a smaller hand stall. Blows a Pro 44 glove away!!

Just opened my eyes, let me get to work and I’ll give a proper reply. @Lemond is right, normally I’d recommend a Rawlings, and in your situation….a Pro1000!

But, it seems that that Mizuno has served you very well, why not a better Mizuno to get you to the finish line?

Do yourself a favor, scrap the Pro 44 idea!
Wow you’ve been on top of it this morning, thank you!! You're right, anything is worlds better than what I have, so definitely feeling overwhelmed by the options 😂 I've seen other 12" Pro Selects and the ball seems to get lost in the pocket a bit. Do you think I'd have that same problem with an 11.75?

If you want to stick with Mizuno:


I have a 11.5” model and I think the 11.75” would be fine for 12” ball at 2b. Only issue is it does take a bit of time to break in. You might also be able to find a good deal on a 12” model as well.
I'm loving the look of these deals!

What size Pro-Selects have you seen? Doubt a 11.75" baseball glove will have an issue with transfers but if so
you can always go with the 11.5" I have :)love:...I love small gloves.. :LOL: )

Ope, you caught me right as I was editing my comment haha. They've been mostly 12" softball gloves so who knows at this point
