Reply to "recruiting pitchers vs position players"

I think versatility is a tremendous asset to have in college! This could easily make the difference in how much you play - at least in the beginning. My son is a ss but can play 2nd and 3rd as well. Fungo's son was both a catcher and a pitcher in college. The All-American on my son's team last year who was drafted high was a 1st baseman, 3rd baseman, and the team's closer. Tim Hudson was a good hitter at Auburn. Thus, even if you are a pitcher, having the ability to hit and/or play in the field can create playing opportunities as well.
