LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2004 Southeast Top Prospect Showcase
Daniel Ballard is a 5'8", 150 lb. middle infielder from Mobile, Alabama, with 7.13 sixty speed. In the infield workout, he showed some arm strength throwing 76 mph from shortstop. Daniel had fair actions, but tends to field the ball too deep and close to his body. His tools will play better at second base on the next level. He has nice transfers and can get rid of the ball quickly on the turn. Daniel is a right handed hitter with a medium stance and average bat speed. Ballard has a line drive swing plane with good hand strength and good balance. He's feasts on balls in the middle of the plate. When Ballard gets more lower half involvement, he should realize some added power potential at the plate. Daniel is an outstanding student.
