if his velocity spikes, and his 3rd pitch doesn't stagnate in the single digits, then he could very well be as good or better pitcher than a hitter.

either way a little development may make this decision easier for you. in my experience, switching within 1-2 years has not been a problem for development.

edit:

he's a bit low on movement in addition to the third pitch issue, noted above... most likely a better batter, but thngs can change.

and who knows about scouting accuracy....
