He has not been able to go to another PG showcase yet and is upset that his time is "stuck" at 7.2 with PG on the website when he ran a 6.6 this past January at another showcase.( bigger stronger and much faster) I was told the only way to post a better time is to do another PG showcase (The WWBA and the other PG tournaments do not have a timed 60 run only PG showcases). He has been to other camps where recruiters have timed his game speed from home to first base and was told that was more important to colleges.
I am not sure about the average improvement in the 60 each year but I know that you can expect to get faster as you mature in high school. Are colleges moving more toward the recorded speeds of a player going from the plate to first? I think the 60 is not a baseball measurement anyway.
Does anyone know what the average college time from home to first is? MLB average also?
Don't know about college, but the MLB scale is in this article: www.fangraphs.com/blogs/scouti...0-80-scouting-scale/
As you can see, average for MLB is 4.30 for a RHH, and 4.2 for a LHH
