LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2001 World Showcase  
Thornton topped out around 87-88, but it doesn’t take a genius to see the immense potential he possesses. A smooth tall lefty who is surely going to end up throwing in the 90s with spinning ability and pitchability. The only question is whether he blossoms by this spring or reaches his potential at Notre Dame. It didn’t take Notre Dame long to get interested after seeing him throw in Ft Myers. Could be that they lost a pitcher (Doherty) by his performance in Ft Myers and replaced him with Thornton.
