How about the role of Title IX? In the name of “fairness” colleges have tried to achieve gender balance by cutting scholarships. Baseball with a roster of 25-30 gets less scholarships than women's basketball where the national champions only list 11 players on their roster.

Former MS State coach Ron Polk was crucified for bringing up how Title IX was playing a role in ensuring that poor inner city kids would be eliminated from college baseball.

Historically college baseball didn’t produce a ton of major league players. That started changing in the 90’s. I don’t think Title IX affects baseball like it affects some smaller sports like swimming, golf, fencing etc.
