College World Series home run numbers arent what they were ten years ago but speed and athleticism is bigger than ever. So the emphasis on defense and base running are much higher...

Agreed and that is why catchers with great catch and throw skills are at a premium. I'm biased to the catching position but the evolution of the game with BBCOR over the past 6 years has changed the way catchers are valued at the D1 level. I understand that teams want catchers that can still hit but pre-BBCOR, a catcher that could hit the ball out of the park 15-20 times per year wasn't uncommon. It is these days.
