Jake Thompson is a 2012 RHP/1B with a 6-4 235 lb. frame from Rockwall, TX who attends Rockwall-Heath HS. XL frame, very good present strength, physically mature. Leg raise delivery, rocks back over his back leg, rotational release, 3/4's to mid 3/4's arm slot. 86-88 mph fastball, good running action at times, slider has good bite and shape, best pitch. Tends to slow on change up. Power approach at the plate, looks to pull and lift, has some hand quickness, big leg load and bat wrap affects timing, ball jumps hard on contact, has a chance as a power hitting first baseman. Good student.

Jake Thompson is a 2012 RHP/1B with a 6-4 230 lb. frame from Rockwall, TX who attends Rockwall-Heath HS. Extra large and strong build, well proportioned and athletic. Leg lift delivery, stays balanced, drives to the plate, will occasionally open early, good downhill angle to the plate, 3/4's arm slot. Consistent 88-90 mph, good late life at times, slurve type breaking ball has hard spin/sharp bite, will occasionally drop under curveball for big sweeping slider effect, best when on top. Nice change up, maintains arm speed, good fade at the plate. Good idea how to pitch, 3 legit pitches, goes after hitters. Big raw power at the plate, big load effort swing with big upper cut, can lift the ball and drive it a long way, one-dimensional approach. Athletic actions at first base and off the mound defensively. Good student.
