"You hit, you play." There is no other metric for college coaches (with - perhaps - the exception of catcher in a few programs).

There is no other position skill which trumps hitting - which is why every effort (money, coaching, time, discipline, focus) should be made to advance hitting. (And there are no shortcuts, no marketing strategies, no puffery, no travel program which can trump this fact.)

Personally, I would find the program which cranks out hitters. (As an aside, these show up and play programs are all fine and dandy - if you have already mastered the only metric important for college coaches; otherwise, you are selling what no one is buying.)
