Their argument is that they can see the pickoff at third fine from the C position and are in better position for a double play from B since the ball rarely gets thrown to third.
I like to know the "why" of our mechanics and not tell the guys "we do it because the book says to do it this way". So, can you guys help me with the justification of putting the BU in C for those situations?
Thanks!

What position would you suggest is better than C in either of these positions? (The only variance that makes any sense only makes sense at 10U B-ball, when they can't steal home). Normal ball, C is where you're in the best position to see any and all of the possible plays.
