There are people that I have played baseball with growing up that were fantastic players, even more raw talent than some major league players, but they went into other professions and did not have the desire to spend their life's work in ta baseball direction as they had other interest. That being said you have to have the focused desire to practice every day until you hone you skills to a high level. This involves personal sacrifice to reach your goal. There are only about 650 major leaguw players at anhy one time. There are thousands who play on college and minor league teams. Once you reach the level to be on either of those kinds of teams yo have to stick out as the best talent. The odds are probably 1 in 500,000 for average high school players and for the players who make the rosters of minor league and college players perhaps 1 in 25,000.
It takes many years of practice and hardwork but you also got to have the mentality and drive to make to the MLB.
