The point is, if you're doing something you love — which evidently isn't baseball, considering what you've said about it just now — then the pleasure you're deriving isn't solely from being good at it; it's from simply doing it in the first place. People who love what they do tend to become better at it because when they love it, they want to do it more often, which has the side benefit of giving them extra practice.
But from the perspective you're taking, it sounds like it's not really the dream in and of itself that you're after — it's the recognition and admiration of other people acknowledging how good you are at something. And if that's the case, then chasing someone else's dream is just going to leave you miserable in the long run.
