2020 Fall Southeast Showcase
Jimbo Gaines is a 2022 C/RHP, IF, OF with a 6-0 156 lb. frame from Cartersville, GA who attends Cartersville. A primary catcher with an athletic lean build. Behind the plate he starts with a square stance with good flexibility at the bottom, he does a nice job gaining ground into his throws with good accuracy and carry down to second base. On the infield he fields the ball out front with a still gather before he gets going directionally to the target with a shuffle. On the mound he sat 69-74 mph with his fastball and flashed some sink when down in the zone, he starts with a small side step into a simple delivery that he does a nice job repeating as the arm works on an average track trough the back up to a higher three-quarters arm slot, he mixed in a low 60's curveball as well with loose spin and 12-6 shape. Right-handed hitter, starts with a wide base sitting deep into his lower half, he showed good intent in the swing with some hand quickness as he worked the ball to all fields with a line drive type of approach. Good student.
