LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2007 West Coast Top Prospect Showcase
Ryan Carrera is a 2008 RHP with a 6'0'', 207 lb. frame from San Diego, CA who attends Montgomery HS. He has a thick, mature build and a large frame. Carrera pitched effectively in the showcase but it should be noted that he pitched with a sore arm. He showed his competitiveness and pitchability as he pitched with less than his best stuff. His fastball velocity was up to 77 mph he was getting some heavy action with it. At times he was getting sink and getting ground balls. Carrera's curveball (66 mph) had some slippery action but it was a distant secondary pitch in his outing. Carrera lives with the fastball and was quite successful with it. Despite the lower velocity due to that sore arm, hitters still did not square up Carrera's fastball very well. He works quickly and is aggressive to the zone.
