When my son was 14 a coach saw my son at a scrimmage. After he asked him how tall his parents and grandparents were. He told him that coaches look for high butts and long arms. My son's nickname since he was 15 has been "Mr. Projectable". One of the older players at his club said that and it stuck.
The best thing was when a coach told him that "projection means very little if you don't work at it." Last summer my son looked at me and said, "I wish I'd stop growing so I could put on weight." I looked at him and said, "Little buddy...you can say that to me but NO other pitcher on your team wants to hear the 6'5" kid bitch about how he's still growing and you're already topping 92."
Projectability might get your foot in the door but at the end of the day baseball is a production business.
