Whats scarry is these kids learn 6 pitches and can perform them with any bottom half configuration, they just get more action the closer they get to all tenets.

Not bad, but nothing to write home about either. Was that a 56' or 58' foot mound (if you could call it a mound; no disrespect to the kid). My kid has 8 pitches: 4 seam FB, 2 seam FB, 4 seam change, 2 seam change, curveball, knuckle curve, slider, cutter. He drops to a low 3/4 slot on his 2 seam and change ups so one can say he has 10 pitches. He'll only use 2 or three in a game depending who his catcher is.
