So this takes the question in a slightly different directly (but not really from the OP): which do kids prefer to do, pitch or hit/field? Not "which is going to get them to the next level," but "which would they rather do if just given the choice"? Understanding that they are not always given the choice in hs.

All pitchers want to hit any chance they get. Lots of position players have no interest in ever getting on the mound. I pitched only because that’s the only way I could play in college. So my experience is that given the choice kids would rather hit and play a position. That way you are every game instead of every 4th or 5th game.
