17yr old RHP who locates better than most. Has four legit pitches with good movement and throws strikes. The problem is velocity is only mid 80s. Perfect game has him at 86 that was pre UCL repair surgery . He is eight months out and throwing low to mid eighties. Completing his junior year and about to start travel ball in Ga. from a recruiting stand point where does this pitcher fit in ?? All advice welcome....thank you

If he throws strikes and gets players out, that probably will determine where he fits in from interest of those watching, plus academic profile. Make sure coaches know he had UCL repair. Don't rule out JUCO interest.

Good luck and keep us posted.
