LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2014 South Underclass Showcase
Zachary Rice is a 2017 LHP/OF with a 5-9 155 lb. frame from Colleyville, TX who attends Grapevine. Young, athletic frame with a lean, projectable build and room to fill out with added strength. Good runner, ran a 6.94 60-yard dash. Primary left-handed pitcher, throws from a side arm slot with a short arm action in the back. Steady tempo delivery, with an online delivery and an easy arm action, projects for more velocity with added strength. Topped at 76 mph with fastball, arm slot allows him to generate run to arm side on fastball and occasionally gets cutting life. Shows a nice feel for a 1-7 curveball with downward depth at 66 mph. Short arm action from the outfield, getting on top of throws will help improve carry, accurate to intended base. Left-handed hitter, starts with his hands pulled back and an upright stance. Upper body swing, short path to the ball with a line drive swing path. Nice plate discipline, creates bat speed with quick hands. Outstanding student.
