LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2004 Southeast Top Prospect Showcase
Danny Ciaccio is a 5'11", 195 lb., catcher from Wesley Chapel, Florida. Behind the plate he showed pop time ranges from 2.12-2.24 with a top velocity of 74 mph. Danny has some arm strength with good footwork and transfers. He is a right handed hitter with a medium stance and slight rock back load. He gets a good hand set and a short, quick path to the ball. He tends to drift out early on many pitches and loose some of his natural strength and bat speed. Danny has improved his overall body quickness and life since we saw him earlier in the summer, which is a good direction that he needs to keep working on. Danny really helped the PG staff work through all the rain problems in North Carolina by catching numerous extra bullpens and making himself available for whatever extra work was needed. He has a great attitude about being at the ball park and loves to play. Danny is a very good student and his best years are ahead of him.
