My son is a Class of 2021 who is committed to a southern D2 program. He is a LHP, 6’6” 220lbs and currently tops at 88 and consistently 86 with a lot of movement and in the zone. Coaches anticipate he will be over 90 by the spring once he makes some adjustments. We were at a showcase today and a MLB area scout gave him his card and told him he had a facility in the area that he could train at and to give him a call. This is the second scout (different organizations) in the last year that has approached and offered this.  The first time he was unable to do it because of the distance from the facility and the conflict with school. Does this mean that they have some interest in him? I would think so since I’m sure they have other things to do. My sons not sure how to proceed. Any insight is appreciated.

Yes, it means that they have him on their radar. With his frame and present ability I can see why. If it doesn't interfere with his schedule and routine and he wants to go he should. Sometimes they will have a small group of guys they are watching come work out together. Area Scout's job is to know all the available talent in their area. Not just what they do on the field but their make up and character as well.

Congratulations!
