LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2017 World Showcase
Vladimir Zavala is a 2017 RHP/OF with a 6-0 165 lb. frame from Brandon, FL who attends Bloomingdale HS. Lean athletic build, plenty of room to add strength. Slight crossfire in his delivery, compact arm action and hides the ball well, uses his lower half well to help generate velocity, high 3/4's arm slot, has some effort at release but repeats his delivery very well. Upper 80's fastball, topped out at 89 mph, gets nice arm side running action, will also pitch glove side with intent, maintained his velocity well. Curveball was his best pitch, has outstanding feel for locating, good velocity in the mid-70's with tight spin and bite, hitters didn't have much of a chance. Only showed his change up in warm ups but looked like a usable present pitch. Pounds the strike zone and can pitch backwards, also fields his position very well. Polished pitcher with a strikeout pitch in his curveball. Very good student.
