LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2020 National Indoor Showcase (Saturday)
Drew Straub is a 2021 LHP/OF with a 6-1 175 lb. frame from Troy, IL who attends Triad. Showed good speed and athleticism, running a 6.99 second sixty-yard dash. Primary left-handed pitcher with a tall and slender frame that has plenty of room to fill out and and add strength. Starts from the windup with a slow and controlled delivery, has clean direction down the mound with a clean arm path from a three-quarter slot. Fastball stays mostly straight up to 79 miles per hour, flashing some arm-side run when locating to that side. Repeats the entire operation well and shows good feel to spin a tight slider with 10-4 shape and good tilt through the zone. Can land for strikes with some consistency in the upper-60s. Secondary outfielder that plays through the ball well with a loose and long arm action to throw. Has confidence to the actions, playing with a clean glove work as well. Left-handed hitter that starts from a straight stance, with a high-hand set and simple load. Shifts well to contact with a slightly lifted barrel plane, getting good extension in the hands with a middle of the field to pull-side approach. Flashes some jump off the barrel when on time and squared. Good student.
