LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2007 Mid Atlantic Underclass Showcase
Elijah Baker is a 2009 OF/P with a 6'1'', 170 lb. frame from Roaring Gap, NC who attends Wilkes Central. Elijah has a lean athletic build with room to fill out some. At the plate Elijah is able to turn on the ball easily and can hit the ball to any part of the field. He tends to get rotational at times in his swing and he needs to work on keeping his weight back and staying inside the baseball longer. In the field Elijah has the tools to project in both the infield and outfield. He has good footwork and clean actions in the outfield. In the infield Elijah shows very good third base tools with his quick actions and a strong arm. On the mound Elijah throws from a 3/4 arm slot with a long two-peice arm action that prodcues good armside run. He is pretty raw in his delivery and will need to work on finishing better to the plate, but there is plenty to work with. Elijah is a strong student that should attract the attention of many mid to high-level college programs.
