I have a young son in the Dominican Republic. He lives comfortable in a nice apartment with light, water, full fridge but it’s located in his mother’s poorer home town. You can’t simulate or recreate the conditions and experiences that develop the kind of drive to be successful from living around poverty, he’s around his grandparents and cousins everyday and he lives it. Most people would bring them to the states to have any easy life but I’m trying to build his character. Now don’t get me wrong, he has one of the nicest living situations in his town and he goes to a better school than most but he’s in the midst of the struggle. He sees how his family lives. He sees the ball players up running in the streets every morning, He’s training with the young kids who don’t have much and he’s developing that grit and grind so when he does come to play ball or go to school he’s prepared. I’m just trying to decide when to bring him and if Should I wait until he’s done with high school or should I bring him his junior year to play ball here and get more exposure.

Let him play highschool baseball in the US if you can. That’s an experience you can’t get anywhere else in the world.

Love of the game.👍🏻👍🏻😃

Humbling. 💪

Baseball Academy God is Good. What great name to have for any business. The work these young man put into their dream is honorable. My respect 🫡

First off. Love your content and the way you think to translate your learning to thought in order to communicate to kids in America to improve kids work ethic and drive in American Baseball. “It’s time to eat” is perfect. Nate - A little suggestion to help you (probably why he giggled): "Es tiempo de comer" is a general statement indicating that it is the appropriate time to have a meal without urgency. "Es hora de comer" is used to convey a sense of urgency or schedule, implying that it is the specific moment when one should start eating. The difference between the two is subtle, and they can be used interchangeably. However - In this situation depending on what you are trying to communicate, the details matter. I like where you are headed with this thought. Very nice. The funny thing is to obtain sledge hammers and tires 🛞 in America will cost well over $200-$500 unless you have truck and know someone who owns a junkyard. 😂

This is why I think the mlb in 20 years will be a Dominican league

Not even close. The American kids are really good too. Don’t get me wrong there will always be really good players from DR and Venezuela.

No way. Baseball has changed a lot here in the US too. Kids are getting started much younger than every before. If we let our kids play baseball all day and only go to class part time like they do in these countries, there would be a lot more American kids in mlb.

This is what I call baseball

We're in the US and my son always ask me why so much talent coming from countries like DR, VZ, PR,. I said these keeps are hungry to provide a better way of life. Then i ask him how much time you spend on Fortnite and how much time he spends training. He's like oh i see!!!! I say, yes son, whatever you want to be good at, do it like your life depends on it and you will see results. If you spend 4hrs a day on fortnite and practice baseball only 2hrs two times a week, which one are you better at? His mind is blown away!!! These kids here in US dont get the struggles of these unfortunate kids trying to make it to the US.

Preach, I tell my Kid this all of the time. He would do poorly in a game and then get fustrated. I would ask him "ok, how much time did you spend on Fortnite"?

No... all they have is baseball... and the MLB throwing equipment at them for free... I've been there to see it... baseball farms... kids in the u.s. would do it too if they didn't have to go to school for 10 hours a day, homework and jobs... plus buy a $500 bat due to rules and regulations and a $300 or more per glove... baseballs are $6 a piece... I don't see the MLB tossing freebies anyone's way here in the U.S...
