@ReluctantO'sFan, it’s pretty much the case anywhere there is competitive HS baseball (which eliminates a lot of small town HS teams tbh) that a 80-85 mph FB is the happy zone for a HS hitter. Average HS players in competitive districts can handle that velo easily and many hitters feast on it. Which is exactly why HS hitting stats don’t project to the better levels of college baseball. When evaluating a HS hitter you have to look at what he does vs the elite pitchers in his area. More than anything else that provides a good indication of what level of college ball he belongs in (if he belongs at any level at all).
