My guess on the order of priority of recruiting is P, C, SS, then CF. Most college coaches will recruit multiple SS's knowing they can play SS or 2B.

My guess is that they'll recruit multiple CFs knowing they can also play left and right. Funny thing though is that I've seen some very bad college level play at 1B. It takes specialized practice to play it well.

Coaches can have different philosophies on LF and RF. Some want girls who can fly, some want big arms, some trade offensive production for defensive prowess. I have seen some really bad defensive skills out of corner outfielders, so I hope they can hit!
