    The average - 2.20-2.25.
    Above average is 2.10-2.19
    Excellent for a HS varsity catcher would be a game throw 2.0-2.09

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------
    The premise behind the use of the 60 yard dash is that it is the distance to score from second base. The average MLB outfielder can (from contact) get the ball to home plate in 7 seconds, therefore, if you cannot score in that time, you will usually be out at the plate.

    60 Yard time:

    Exceptional - 6.4 Less
    Well Above Avg. - 6.60 - 6.51
    Above Avg. - 6.80 - 6.61
    Average - 7.00 - 6.81
    Below Avg. - 7.30 - 7.01
    Well Below Avg. - 7.50 - 7.31
    Poor - 7.70 - 7.51


    Home to 1b left handed batter

    Exceptional - 3.9
    Well Above Avg. - 4.0
    Above Avg.- 4.1
    Average - 4.2
    Below Avg. - 4.3
    Well Below Avg. - 4.4
    Poor - 4.5



    home to 1b right handed batter

    Exceptional - 4.0
    Well Above Avg. - 4.1
    Above Avg. - 4.2
    Average - 4.3
    Below Avg. - 4.4
    Well Below Avg. - 4.5
    Poor - 4.6



    Steal of second base

    Exceptional - 3.00 Less
    Well Above Avg. - 3.10 - 3.01
    Above Avg. - 3.15 - 3.11
    Average - 3.25 - 3.16
    Below Avg. - 3.30 - 3.24
    Well Below Avg. - 3.40 - 3.29
    Poor - 3.60 - 3.48

    HS pitching velocity---too subjective, but low 80's are average, unless you go to a Showcase with Freddy Suggs, then 78 is average.
