I understand other "factors" and that I'm not comparing apples to apples. If the difference were 93/95 or 93/97 I wouldn't give it a second thought, but 93/106..... I know what the kid has done, lead the state in HR'S most of the year last year. Looking up the other kid I don't see anything like that. So one is left with the conclusion that he either sucks vs live pitching or that number has been arrived at with something other than a normal swing. And I don't mean to pick on this one kid because I see this a lot.
At the risk of hijacking this thread I have to say I'm not a big fan of showcases. It's just not the exit velo, throwing velo is just as bad. I still think back to the few showcases we've been to. No effort was made as to form or accuracy of throws, just flung for the sake of high numbers. The one indoor event I remember windows were broken out. It blows my mind that any recruiter or scout gives any weight to performance at a showcase.
