As baseball fans, it’s easy to sometimes think about major league players as finished products, even when they first make their debut. In and of itself, being called to the big leagues feels like validation that a player is pretty much done with the part of his baseball life that includes all the learning, the growing, the changing, the adapting. A ball player’s foundation is built in little league, high school and, if they choose, college, and the rest is fine-tuned in the minors. Surely, players get better over the course of their major league careers, and continue to develop.
