LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2022 Nashville Prospect Showcase
Connor Knight is a 2024 RHP/ with a 6-5 185 lb. frame from Knoxville, TN who attends Webb School Of Knoxville. Classic pitchers build with a long lean frame, good athleticism for a young pitcher and a lot of time and room to add overall physicality. RHP working from the stretch, staying inline and working into a medium leg lift just above the belt at balance. Breaks hands at the waist into clean arm path that hides behind his torso and leads to a high 3/4 arm angle. The hand is quick and he generates mid-80's velocity with ease leading you to believe there is a lot more to come from that standpoint. FB has solid spin traits and peaked at 85 mph but when he leaked the front side a bit early hitters did see the ball early. SL was a dominant pitch with real swing and miss characteristics as it spun at an elite 2,500+ rpms and stayed in the low-70's. CH is a distant third offering but is enough to keep LHH's honest as the spin mirrored the heater well. Profiles as a power arm long term with a lot to look forward to. Tremendous student as well.
