Reply to "To Run or not to Run?"

How slow?  Does he hit and hit with power, how strong is his arm?

 

Slow is hard to hide.  You can skip running the 60, but he will be timed running to first base.

 

I do understand your thinking, I think.  Why have something negative on his record?  Possibly that 60 time would cause decision makers to discount him.  So there is some reasoning behind not running the 60 and grading high in the other things.  Sooner or later they will find out, but by then they might fall in love with the player.

 

There are many reasons why players have not run the 60.  Some are very fast runners, but slightly injured.  Some don't want their time recorded.
