You are asking the right questions, but maybe just not getting the answer exactly the way you asked the question.
Once they are freshmen, the age level distinctions start to blur. Some boys grow very quickly, others very slowly.
At some point in time (pretty quickly) those freshmen boys become senior men. The pro scouts and college coaches begin to start comparing players to those fairly common standards referred to earlier.

I as a mom, wanted to just look at each of these boys and say guys,,,,,,,,you are young, you have lots of time here is what the community of baseball players are doing for times (give them the averages) the tell them to work on your game, work in school take it step by step.
If they stay around baseball long, they will soon become familiar with the numbers.
You asked a great question. It is a question that you will still be asking four or five years from now.
What standard do I have to meet to play?
Lots to observe and learn and has been a lot of fun for me................
