1. Pitcher: %
2. Catcher: %
3. Middle infield: %
4. Corners: %
5. Outfield: %
In the past I always hear the person verballed here or there but nobody ever says what percent is covered in that offer. So my question is that percentage 25%, 50%, 75% or rarely 100%.
I find it interesting that no one is really answer the question posed. So here is my 2 cents.
Each individual player is dependent on her own talent level. A game changing centerfielder with crazy speed may command more than a starting catcher. Each school is different in how they spend their money. Some schools spread it around. Some spend all of their 12 scholarships on 12 players with full rides and fill the rest of their rosters with walk-ons. But that said, my experience is at full-funded Div. I programs in Texas an expected freshman starter will get:
Pitchers - more than everyone else (60-100 percent)
Catchers - more than most (50-80 percent)
Middle Infield - shortstops just behind catchers (50-80 percent)
Everyone else with slapper/speedsters ahead of the pack
Again, just my 2 cents but I'ld like to know what others think especially in other parts of the country.
