Josh Algarin is a 2021 OF/LHP with a 5-9 160 lb. frame from Sunnyvale, CA who attends The King's Academy. Medium developing build with plenty of room to fill out as he continues to develop, posted a 7.08 second sixty-yard dash time. Primary outfielder, moves well into the gap as well as down the line. Solid athleticism all round, fields off to the side and carries his momentum to and through the baseball. Strong throws that stay on line to all bags. Was gunned at 88 mph in the outfield workout. On the mound, has a longer arm action from a high three-quarters slot. Stays compact overall with his motion, lands closed down the mound. Fastball up to 85 mph, developing consistency with his release point. Fills up the zone when he repeats, mixes in an 11-to-5 shaped curveball with god depth to the plate. Plus ability when he locates it across body and catches it out in front. At the plate, uses a wide and upright stance with a hanging leg lift trigger. Good strength to his hands, deep hand load explodes at launch. Middle to pull side approach with fantastic projection to his power tool. Great student in the classroom as well.
