Jimmy Marshall is a solid strong 6'0/200 catcher/RHP from Tallahassee, FL. Marshall showed a legitimate two-way prospect ability. He has a powerful bat and throws 91 mph with a sharp mid-80’s slider off the mound. Scouts will continue to look at him both ways in the immediate future. As a catcher he showed plus MLB arm strength and very good 1.8 pop times, 1.9 in the game. He even ran a very good 7.1 on the Tropicana Field turf. His swing is a bit long and he creates big league power bat speed. He has serious raw power and he shows it when he gets his hips turned. He has a power arm that can reach close to mid 90s at times. Jimmy is an excellent student.
PG Grade 10.0

Jimmy Marshall -- We’ve seen Marshall pitch and play a number of times over the last year. He has one of the best arms in the 2005 class, which creates a bit of Catcher vs. Pitcher dilemma for him. We’re going to go on the side of pitching right now. Marshall has a strong 6-0, 195 lb. frame that’s going to continue to get stronger. He uses his athleticism to vary his release point when pitching and will occasionally drop down for a different look while maintaining his stuff. Marshall topped out at 91 mph in Fort Myers and we’ve seen him 91-92 mph in the past with good heavy life. He has the short in back, long in front arm action that a lot of the top power pitchers tend to have. Marshall’s slider can be his best pitch at times and will flash nasty bite at 76-77 mph quite often. He will also throw a change up. Marshall definitely has some huge power at the plate, but his swing tends to get long at times. Other times he's very short to the ball and flat out mashes. The ball jumps off his bat in a big hurry. Defensively, Marshall’s arm strength is obviously way above MLB average (85mph/1.87 pop) and he has an accurate, repeatable release. Marshall doesn’t have the softest hands yet and that might be one area he could improve before the "05" draft. He’s a very good student who plays the game hard. Highest level prospect and 2-way college guy. It's his bat vs his arm, take your pick.
