So I am looking for actual real live info. I googled information but wasn't sure on what I had found as being reliable. What are the averages (in your opinion based off what you have seen) for exit velocity, FB, if velo and outfield velo for each of the years in HS. I am not looking for maxes, just averages.

Average HS player or average recruited player? Big difference. I'm in a cold state so the numbers will be lower than those in baseball states, but for varsity players I would say
Avg HS Fastball: 77-80mph
Avg Exit Velo: Low 80s
IF Velo: High 70s
OF Velo: Mid 70s
The numbers for recruited players are going to be much better. I would assume these numbers are dramatically lower for freshman, especially considering the growth at 15/16
Thanks, do you think the pg numbers are accurate? For instance, the average for 2019 ev as 83, and fb average of 82 seems low to me??
Yes I think it’s accurate for the overall population. It’s not close for the average recruited kid.
The PG 2020 numbers, above, look like they may have been from a showcase in a year ("recorded year") other than 2018? I suspect these were the percentages for a 2020 in 2017.
No it’s on the current pages for overall bests and I know these are all from 2018 numbers.
I just checked (my son went to a showcase in 2018) and the PG averages for a 2020 in 2018 are:
FB: 80
60: 7.35
10 Split: 1.73
Infield Velo: 79
Exit Velo: 81
I expect the 2020 averages will trend up for "recorded year" 2019.
can he hit .400 ?

Home field, that just seems low to me. Again, I understand these are not recruiting numbers, but I would think or assume most fresh would have to be at 80 ev just to make the team.

There’s no way the TOP 60 time was 7.53. That’s just hokey.

It’s probably a misprint and should be 6.53.
Agree with Consultant 100%. But, to clarify, what I gave were the average numbers for 2020s recorded by PG in 2018, not the top numbers.

No, that’s the top for this kid. Just look at the class average. That was the question. I just pulled up three profiles so I could view the average.
No offense but the top FB for 2019 would be 97 mph by kid from Georgia so I know this is not right for that class. This must be from some event or from a certain type of event. Plus the top EV I think for 2019 was 104 or 105. I would say the average is about right when you put over 3,000 players in those stats.

AGAIN, it is these particular kids’ best for each. I only posted it because it shows the class average. It shows how these boys top compares to the class average...
Basically, I pulled three profiles from kids at our high school that I knew did a PG event in 2018 so that I could see the class averages. The top for each is only showing that particular kid’s best. But the class average would be right for 19, 20, 21

Thanks for clarifying!
