PG Sunshine Southeast to debut

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (January 27, 2014) – The Perfect Game Sunshine Showcase series, the oldest of which will mark its 14th anniversary this year, has added a fifth event to bring even more exposure to prospects in yet another region of the country.

The inaugural PG Sunshine Southeast Showcase will run for three days May 30 through June 1 north of Atlanta. The event will be at Perfect Game’s future permanent address at the LakePoint sporting complex in Emerson, Ga., if the new regulation-size playing fields currently under construction are completed in time. If the fields at LakePoint aren’t ready to go, the PG Sunshine Southeast Showcase will be held at nearby Cartersville (Ga.) High School.

This showcase is designed to attract the top high school prospects from the Southeast, including the talent-rich states of Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee, Kentucky, Virginia and North and South Carolina. Its appeal could conceivably reach up into the Ohio Valley region, as well.

The PG Sunshine Southeast Showcase joins a lineup that this year includes the 14th annual PG Sunshine East Showcase, May 31-June 1 in Fort Myers, Fla.; the 10th annual PG Sunshine South Showcase, May 31-June 1 in Tomball, Texas; the 9th annual PG Sunshine Northeast Showcase, May 31-June 1 in Aston, Pa.; and the 12th annual PG Sunshine West Showcase, June 7-8 in Chula Vista, Calif.

The PG Sunshine showcases have become recognized as the unofficial kick-off events for the summer baseball season at venues from coast-to-coast, and an average of 243 prospects attended each of the four Sunshine events in 2013.

They provide an excellent opportunity for prospects that will be high school seniors in the fall to earn an invitation to the prestigious Perfect Game National Showcase, and for younger players to earn one to the PG Junior National Showcase. Those events will run consecutively June 9-16 at the JetBlue Player Development Complex in Fort Myers.

Throughout their long runs, the Sunshine East, Sunshine Northeast, Sunshine South and Sunshine West showcases have graduated nearly 2,000 alumni that made verbal commitments to continue their playing careers at colleges of every level. More than 460 Sunshine showcase alumni were selected in the June MLB First-Year Player Draft – two dozen in the first round – either following successful college careers or directly out of high school.

Twenty-one alumni of the Sunshine East have made their Major League Baseball debuts, including the Red Sox’s Jarrod Saltalamacchia, the Royals’ Eric Hosmer, the Reds’ Joey Votto and the White Sox’s Chris Sale. Five Sunshine West alumni have debuted in the big leagues, including the Pirates’ Gerrit Cole.

This weekend will kick off the 2026 PG Junior National Showcase with the Sophomore National Showcase following close behind. Both in Marietta, Georgia, these showcases will feature lots of top-50 talent along with the ever-present potential for lesser-known players to turn heads.  For the Junior National Showcase, starting on June 6, 7 of the top 10-ranked players will attend - No. 2 Colin Anderson, No. 3 Cullen Scott, No. 4 Carter Shouse, No. 6 Aiden Kearney, No. 8 Keelan Zumwalt, No. 8 Landon Bonner and No. 9 Theo Swafford.  Anderson won’t have to travel far to attend, coming from Acworth, Georgia. At last year’s Sophomore National Showcase, he impressed scouts with his calm approach and explosive bat speed. Scott, a right-handed pitcher and third baseman from Melissa, Texas, has shown his arm strength getting up in the 90-mph zone....

16u Elite Scout Notes: Days 1-2

Article Image
Noah Harris (2028, Savannah, Ga.) has been swinging it well for CBU down in Hoover, driving in seven runs on three hits through just two days of action. He has a single, double, triple and three runs scored across a couple of games. The 6-foot-3 lefty hitter uses a consistent timing mechanism in the box with excellent leverage generated at impact, oftentimes from gap to gap. He wears a lean athletic build with plenty of projection and plus speed that makes him a serious threat on the basepaths. Harris has proven that he can hit for contact and power at the plate, making for a tough out against any arm. #Uncommitted ‘28 Evan Hedlund (AZ) pitching lights out for @ShowTime_Select; 7 Ks thru 3 IP thus far. Living 86-88 w/ carry on 72% Ks. Mixing two-plane SL for Ks. Lean athl type w/ more to come. @PG_Uncommitted #NatElite @PGMidAtlantic https://t.co/rWfzwyRvUv...

"Why not us?" Canes MW Take 14u WWBA

Kinley Kitchens
Article Image
Every championship team has an identity. For Canes Midwest 14U National, it could be summed up in three simple words. "Why not us?" That became the team’s motto throughout the week, and by championship day, the players had turned those words into reality. Canes Midwest capped off a memorable tournament with a 8-4 victory over Canes National 14U, finishing an undefeated 11-0 run over six days while proving they belonged among the nation’s top teams. It was a championship built on timely hitting, dominant defense, relentless grit, and a belief that never wavered. For Coach Steiner, the title represented far more that simply winning another tournament. “It has been an unbelievable experience for us,” Steiner said. “Some people call us a mid-major, so I guess we are now solidified as being one of the top programs in the country.” That belief carried the...

‘28 SS Jimmy Sequin III (MI) checks in as one of the top players in the state & T500 nationally 📈 Hammers this 2B down the line. Good athleticism & twitch. Surefire UTM on defense @ SS. #OVWWBA @PG_OhioValley pic.twitter.com/Qy21I2jJsU — Jordan Gates (@JGatesPG) June 17, 2026 Jimmey Sequin (2028, Midland, Mich.) Had the chance to see one of my favorite 2028’s in the Ohio Valley region and he did not disappoint. In five games, he hit .500 with six hits, including four doubles out of the leadoff spot. Sequin III is a quick twitch, hyper quick prospect that sees his time at shortstop. Although there is present arm strength, projects slightly over to the right side of the field. Despite the smaller frame, he absolutely packs a punch. Shows the ability to burn on the bases and has exceptional bat-to-ball skills. Compact stroke that creates length and shows solid...

He got the day started with a backside bomb in game-one that he knew he got right off the bat. Nockley would then follow it up with a two-homer performance in game-two, one to right-center and one to left-center. The ability to hit the baseball hard to all parts certainly stands out, he runs well and can pick it up the middle. There’s a ton of boxes here that get checked...

Fast and Furia at 14u WWBA

Every successful team has talent, but the teams that make great summer ball runs often have something more. For Furia Prospects 2030, that difference has been a consistent commitment to playing for one another. The Texas-based team earned a 4-0 victory over East Cobb Astros 14U to secure their spot in the semifinals, combining dominant pitching with timely offense and another complete team performance. Christian Choe set the tone on the mound, allowing just two hits while striking out three over 4.2 innings before Blaine Jackson closed out the final four outs to preserve the shutout. At the plate, Brody Peterson paced the offense with a 2-for-3 performance and two RBI, while Mark De Leon and Jancarlos Nunez each drove in a run. Through these tournament games, Peterson has emerged as one of the team's most consistent hitters, batting .750 while continuing to deliver in key moments. Yet...
