[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These estimates of velo needed for pitchers are wild. My kid is about to start his Freshman year as a D3 pitcher. His fastball velo now sits 81-82. It was probably 70 as a high school freshman. He didn’t even START pitching until he was 14. Velo isn’t everything. My kid’s high school wasn’t a baseball powerhouse, so he was able to play and develop with lots of playing time. He has been doing weekly lessons with a pitching coach for many years as that has been his focus. I’d get your son a hitting coach and work with them thought the fall and winter. Many high school teams have a fall ball team of some sort, often specifically to integrate freshman into the program. Your son could email the coach and ask.[/quote] Not OP but thanks for this. My 2028 kid played some Perfect Game tourneys this summer and there are kids who are 15 throwing 88 (checking out the FB velo page was eye-opening). It really does skew one's perspective. [/quote]
