Reply to "Position to showcase?"

My 2023 has only attended one showcase and it was as a pitcher & 1st base. All of his throws during the position portion of the showcase were from 1st to 2nd, and his infield velo was clocked at 70 mph. He can throw much harder than 70 mph (FB clocked at 80 MPH). Should he identify as a middle infielder or 3rd base at the next event so that he has the opportunity to get his infield velo up?

Not a bad idea but depends on the event.  Most used to lump IF's (except maybe 1b's) and have them all throw from SS for IF velo so it wouldn't matter in that instance.  It's possible that this is changing?  BTW, what was his P velo for that event?

Still, and again, no hurry for a 2023.  The single best thing to do to improve his velo readings is wait a year or two
