LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2014 PG Underclass All American Games
Connor Darling is a 2016 RHP/3B with a 6-4 205 lb. frame from Suwanee, GA who attends North Gwinnett HS. Very nice pitcher's build, long with good present strength and some projection. Calm well paced delivery, compact arm action, can improve extension out front, tight 3/4's arm slot, good direction to the plate and repeats his mechanics. Fastball topped at 88 mph, have seen up to 91 mph this summer, consistent running and sinking fastball life, keeps fastball down in the zone and works to both sides of the plate, maintained his fastball velocity well. Short breaking slider, gets off the barrel of the bat but lacks present power. Change up flashed quality with good arm speed and location. Mixes his pitches and throws strikes. Key to development will be improving his breaking ball. Good student.
