Reply to "When to position specialize?"

@Dominik85 C1/CP/OF for travel/showcase. CF/C2 for HS.  Also very good at SS/2B/3B.  1 or 2 hole in the order for both.  Hitting just shy of .300 for HS this season.  Not great but that will improve as he gets bigger and stronger.  A little too selective early on at the plate, but has amassed 23 hits with one to go and is 4th on the team behind 3 SR’s.  

We’re setting up his training schedule for this summer and I’m thinking that eliminating MI work might make sense, but 2B and 3B will open up with SR’s moving on next year. HS coach apparently likes him in CF as that’s where he mostly plays.  Hopefully we’ll get some clarity in his season exit interview.  CF doesn’t make sense to me because he lacks the straight line speed that recruiters are looking for, but reads the ball off the bat well and has a solid arm.  Trying to be efficient with his time.

Also has a quite a few 2024’s that he’s come up with that we’re really good hitters and fielders already converted to PO’s.  Not really sure of the details, but it seems early to take the bat out of their hands.  Just trying to make sense of a HS baseball world that sometimes doesn’t.  

Thanks for your thoughts.
