2016 Northeast Indoor Showcase-NJ
Jonathan Weitzman is a 2017 RHP/IF with a 6-0 180 lb. frame from Marlboro, NJ who attends Colts Neck High School. Medium, athletic frame with present strength to frame and well proportioned throughout. Ran a 5.25 40-yard dash. Primary righthanded pitcher, works exclusively out of the stretch, loads up on back side before driving towards the plate. Throws from a three-quarters arm slot, shows quickness to arm and ability to get on top of fastball to generate downhill life and can challenge hitters in. Topped out at 81 mph with occasional cutting life, occasionally works to a high three-quarters slot and can work to either side. Mixed in a curveball that showed 12-6 shape with short depth and bite down in zone, can locate changeup arm side well at 65 mph, slight cutting life to it. Shows footwork moving through the ball at first base, fields ball close to body, short arm action through the back and works to an over the top arm slot, solid arm strength across and pivots well on feet. Righthanded hitter, begins swing with a high leg lift trigger. Incorporates lower half well into swing, inside path with a line drive swing plane, generates nice bat speed through zone with strength coming off the barrel. Very good student.
