fenwaysouth posted:My advice would be to go to the showcases where your son can separate himself from other recruits, and where he will be in demand by college baseball recruiters. As you've described your post, it appears to me that he would be better served attending a showcase with a high 80's fastball with an upside to 90, good grades and a good ACT score. While my son got some attention at PG World Wood Bat Nationals, he got far more traction at HeadFirst and specific prospect camps as a follow up to HeadFirst. We learned there are vastly more kids that throw 90 mph than there are that throw 90 and have good grades and SAT scores. Your mileage may vary depending on those grades and ACT scores.
Good luck and let me know if I can help further.
Do you know if it makes a difference which headfirst showcase a player attends? We are in CO, so the CA location makes more sense but am willing to go back east if it is a better option. We have family on both coasts.
