This is a topic of discussion in our household so I thought I'd share it with you all. Our son has many opportunities facing him as a rising junior as we are fortunate enough to be in year round weather. His highly regarded pitching coach (also a scout) says to not attend the showcases and to keep getting stronger and better. He just got clocked at 90 and hits .480. He's 6'3 and just turned 16. His high school coach says the same thing and he's been on varsity since he was a freshman. His summer team travels and does tons of high profile tournaments and showcases. We need the audiences input as to the pros and cons. We just want him to have fun and develop.
