LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2007 Spring Top Prospect Showcase  
Andrew DeSousa is a 2007 RHP with a 6'1'', 190 lb. frame from Cedar Rapids, Iowa, who attends Xavier High School. DeSousa has a good pitcher's build with a lean and wiry frame that is projectable. On the mound he is a right handed pitcher who throws from a 3/4 arm slot with a loose and easy arm action. DeSousa has a long, calm delivery, and shows good balance over the rubber. His fastball topped out at 86 mph, while working at 81-85 mph. He has projectable velocity, but his best pitch is his curveball. DeSousa throws a sharp breaking ball with deep break and good spin. He also shows a good feel for his change-up at 77 mph with sink at times. He has the potential to throw with three quality pitches at the next level. DeSousa has good upside, and he is an outstanding student as well.
