2017 National Underclass East Showcase
Alex Barnhart is a 2018 LHP/1B with a 6-2 170 lb. frame from Wellington, FL who attends Wellington. Large frame with long limbs and an athletic build. Projects for additional strength. Primary left handed pitcher with a simple side to high leg kick delivery. Stays tall on back side at gather and drives to the plate with drop and drive lower half actions. Front side tends to land at a slightly closed position, but gets back in line with hip rotation at finish. Shows ability to repeat a long, loose arm action from a three-quarters slot. Hides the baseball well with a fastball offering that flashed occasional running action to arm side topping at 77 miles per hour. Curveball had 2/8 shape with softer spin and some depth when located down in the strike zone. Changes eye levels well with fastball early in count before mixing in curveball late in counts. Showed good poise while on the mound and consistently filled the strike zone producing weak contact. Very good student as well.
