LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2014 National Underclass South Showcase
Ben Calkins is a 2016 RHP with a 6-2 183 lb. frame from Houston, TX who attends Jersey Village HS. Tall and narrow build, lots of room to get stronger. Compact wrapped arm action, 3/4's arm slot, pause at his balance point coming forward. Mid to upper 60's fastball, topped out at 71 mph early, has topped out as high as 78 mph at PG events this past summer. Gets good sinking action on his fastball at times. Soft curveball with occasional depth. Very good student.
