I used to totally agree with this and would never bunt in showcases. But as I have been told on numerous occasions the coaches want to see the players produce in actual game situations. The biggest showcase we go to every year has teams from all over the country playing and over 260 coaches attenting. And you see bunting in every situation that warrants it. Definately has changed over the years.....
If college coaches were indeed present at this event, the last thing a college coach wants to see (normally) is bunting. They are there to see the kids hit, the pitchers pitch, the catchers catch, and to a lesser extent the fielders fielding. So if college coaches are present travel coaches, SWING THE BAT!!! I would only bunt a kid if for some strange reason a college coach came up to me and asked me to bunt a certain kid, or if winning the tournament had national ramifications.
