Any sportsfags here?
I'm thinking of trying out for my college baseball team. I haven't played since i was 14. I was however an All star from ages 10-14, and my little league did add several Major League players to the leage (all of them i played with and struck out) I'm 6'4 195 and /fit// I threw 50 pitches today with my velocity hovering over 70 mph and breaking pitches still breaking.
What are my chances?

Don't bother then

Impossible to know without seeing your form and knowing what your constitution is like; you're posting on 4chan so I naturally assume you have asthma and a pokemon fetish.

I played little league for years; when I was a freshman in college I was 5'10" and 130, so I knew that was never going to happen, but at least show up and see what happens. You'll always wonder, otherwise.

Also what school?

D-I less likely, If it's NAIA or D-III then sure.

i'm sorry this is all i can give you.
MAYBE i'll take a video of my technique and post it on here, that could be a good idea! but it'll have to be another time.
I'm 22.

My velocity was always an issue for me but as a kid i was always able to pitch around it. i relied on Accuracy, and my breaking ball. I saw today that i can still hit my spots pretty well. My long arms give me leverage most shorter fireballers don't have, so that helps.
i could probably push myself harder but i didn't wanna throw my arm out on my first day back!

2 bits of advice
1 always bust your ass as hard as you can during tryouts

2 Try out for every single meme sport you can my buddy made his CC's tennis team despite never playing before in his life.

Community college baseball was pretty cozy, cheap as fug first date and with only 40 people in the stands I could get three or four foul balls a night. I only have a CSUB wojack but I should make a bakersfield college one too sometime

I'm not a scout, /sp/'s opinion means nothing.

Just go fucking try out, but if you land even one sorority QT you must post pics.

Is this thread a fucking joke? I've never heard of that school before this moment, but based on the name alone I'm fairly certain I could start in the outfield, like, tomorrow.

Santa Barbara is a big town for baseball

Fuck baseball.
Does your shitty college have a rugby team? Try out for that.
