While I agreed with her, I also said it doesn't serve the team at all if he goes and plays miserable and doesn't try.

This morning she found writings on his bed he did about striking out and that he sucks.
I agree with Mrs FT. If he quits then they might not have enough kids to play some if the games because of illness, etc. Tell him to just work on improving his play. He signed up, he can stick it out.
