Not really. I'm fine with a junker. I just know she has to be very fine in terms of control compared to the faster pitcher. All else being even I'll take the speed sure but everything is never even. Who's tougher menally. Who will go multiple innings and games without fading. Who's parents are more supportive. And the list goes on. but it really comes down to, who gets outs. You want Maddux or Ryan? Ideally you want both.

58MPH for an 11 YOA girl? Pretty hard to believe, considering Finch was throwing "only" 55 MPH at 12 YOA.

why ask someone to make a choice like that??/ all things being equal, anyone will take speed, but ...actually I think your radar gun might be a smokeblower flamethrower.

Dang Im sharp for this early in the morning!!!

OK, I don't want either because they don't exist...

I want my #1 11yo to hit her spots and have a change.
