RR,

None of my business but... Why stop him from trying out? What is there to lose?

88-91 can create serious interest, especially if he shows some other things. If a scout told you that (93) was the only way, he was pulling your leg. There are all kinds of pitchers drafted who don’t throw 93. I was referring to velocity MUCH lower than topping at 91 in that post.

If he can "pitch" well in the upper 80s and has a good breaking ball and shows abilty to touch 90-91... He's a professional prospect. Especially if he loves it!

Best of luck to your son.
