Yes he is a realistic threat to "hit them out".. Not constantly at this point, but it happens.. At a recent Coastal showcase he hit one out during one of their games then we laughed when we got his 60yd time back & their note that said they "might look at a 7.1-7.3" at corner infield.. (as in - "not you" - lol) Though obviously that's a higher end D1 baseball school.. but still, everything I read here suggests he would need to be in that range generally to actually see the field at D1's. Which is the crux of my question.. (where might he see the field?)
And do we "rule out" his being a pro prospect? No, but we don't rule out hitting powerball either.. If it seemed he was capable of attaining that kind of ability, awesome - but not part of what we think is a realistic "plan".
Was just really looking for some direction of the division of baseball schools that are realistic based on his present running, size & skill set.. He/we will take a systematic approach to researching schools - he wants to cast a WIDE net.. and IS putting emphasis on playing baseball at school - and there's a LOT of schools that he can get what he needs academically & socially.. (and that is not part of our question to this forum) but is the kind of person that will enjoy the 4 years & then make the most of the next 40 regardless of where he goes to school.
Thanks for all replies thus far!
