[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here- I know it's a really random question. For some reason, we have some very tall kids on the team and almost all seem to play OF. I know some very solid kids who got cut and they're on the shorter side- 5'6"ish - so I wondered if all things equal, the coach went for height as the tiebreaker. (My son is corner IF and P and he is 6'- the OF makes him look small.)[/quote] Heights factors more into thoughts on hitting and pitching vs playing in the OF. [b]Do they hit very well?[/b][/quote] +1 On most high school varsity teams, well over half the team is very capable of playing corner OF. Everyone except the very slow kids (and usually there aren’t many of those) or kids with weaker arms (and usually there aren’t many of those on an HS varsity team either). They’ll plug in the best two hitters who meet the criteria, pretty much always. CF is a different story. [/quote]
