Well, as an example here's what I'm looking at when I see a pitcher and decide that they're in a class called the BEST...
1) As a '95, they're throwing mid-high 50's (at a minimum)
2) Their fastball is a seldom-used pitch
3) Movement pitches have very obvious movement - not just an "I guess I think so" effect...
4) The "Out" pitch is a screw, curve, rise - not a fastball or changeup (never mind Tayrn Mowatt!)
5) They give up no more than 1-2 legitimate hits and no runs against opponents who often run-rule others
6) See point #5 and add in that they're opponents who are also consistently playing against known high caliber teams
7) Other
high-caliber teams are constantly trying to recruit this one
8) Lastly... she has the "aw crap!" affect when teams face her
As stated before, I can only think of one playing in the Sac area that fits all of these points and she's actually a 14u '96. There are other '95s that live around Sac that fit most of these points, but they don't play in the Sac area. Hence, the need to see tournaments and play outside of the area...
Man, this post got way off target, didn't it?
