Thinking about this some more.
Totally agree that 95 is 95 whether it's D1 or D2 and that's why you see D2 pitchers go pro.
That said, with the advanced metrics and devices available today, measuring things like bat speed, exit velo, etc., if we ever get to the day where MLB starts doing combines, maybe more D2 position players will have more interest from the big league teams? Just like 95 is 95, an exit velo of 110 off the hack measured by hit trax is the same whether it's from a D1 or D2 player.

Yeah definitely, i think with trackman a truly outstanding game EV might get you noticed.

However you still need to hit the ball and a high EV against 85 might not translate.

But if the EV is really plus plus (115+) and comes with performance, a good swing and approach it might get you noticed.
