It's up to you. If you are a quick, agile guy, then set up closer to the mound. If you are a bit slower, more toward the base. It's a matter of personal preference.
On pickoff plays at 1st from B, you need to get a couple steps and set for the play. Don't just stand in B flatfooted. They (coaches, instructors) want you to get a better angle. If you can't get the footwork right on this, you will want to work closer to the mound from B.
