In this episode I'm going deep inside College Baseball Showcases explaining how they work on the surface and behind the scenes. I've attended them as a player, recruited them as a coach, and ran them working with a showcase company in the past. I'll examine this from four perspectives - The company running the showcase, the Players in the showcase, the coaches working the showcase, and you the parents who are a sweaty nervous wreck at the showcase.
