LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2016 West Coast Top Prospect Showcase
Nathan Tholl is a 2017 1B with a 6-2 160 lb. frame from Vista, CA who attends Vista HS. Large frame with a lean, athletic build. Frame has plenty of room for additional size with strength. Ran a 7.34 sixty yard dash. Primary first baseman with an uptempo demeanor. Showed good actions while squaring up and funneling the baseball out front. Moved well to each side with fundamental footwork while setting up to receive throws. Baseball came out of hand cleanly produced accurate, on line throws across the infield topping at 78 mph. Right handed hitter with a balanced stance and compact hand set. Direct, compact path to contact that created a naturally lifted plane through extension. Swings with intent to lift the baseball in the air and drive it through the gaps. Generates some back spin and carry to the gaps when on time and balanced to finish. Tools will continue to develop with physical maturity and repetition. Good student as well.
