Walk-on baseball athletes at the NCAA Division I level should assess their chances to make the 35-man roster if there were more than 35 guys practicing with the team in the Fall practice period.
Some coaches will keep 36-38 guys practicing with the team and not make those final cuts down to 35 until the end of January.
I believe that’s unfair and unethical to keep a player “hanging on” in hopes of making the 35-man roster and then having no options for the Spring to go elsewhere if they are cut.
If you or your athlete are in this situation, we can discuss your situation, answer your questions, and provide transfer eligibility options for you to consider.
