Not to be a Debbie Downer,but keep in mind this kid is about as good at baseball,as he is in Football.God forbid if someone Transfers,and he decides baseball is the way,then we are sucking the hind Tit again,sorry,but it is a possibility

He's said many times now throughout the process that he'd like to play his senior year of HS baseball if it works, but that Football is his passion and it's his number 1 goal. If a Baseball team wants to offer him first round money, that might be tough to pass up, but otherwise it's likely not a concern, and there is a very low probability of that. He's said a few times that baseball is something that his dad hopes that he continues to pursue ("never shut the door" or something to that effect). I'd be more concerned about exposure to injury during baseball season if he does elect to play than anything, but you can't exactly wrap a kid in bubble wrap...
