yea who would want a fully developed 19 year old...much rather guess at what a 17 year old might look like in 2 years.

well if the 17 year old hits the ball just as far as the 19 year old without being fully developed I take him.

but that being said rutherford still was a top20 pick and the 11th HS Player picked so there weren't many 17 yos hitting the ball like him.

nobody would take a 17yo hitting the ball 300 feet over a 19yo hitting the ball 400 feet, it is just a factor when anything else is equal (or almost equal, if the 17yo hits the ball "only" 380 I still might take him but only if it is very Close).
