LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2016 Northwest Showcase
Alex Claxton is a 2019 SS/2B with a 5-8 140 lb. frame from Happy Valley, OR who attends Clackamas HS. Slender young build, lots of room to get stronger. 7.28 runner, moves well to both sides defensively with light feet and a quick first step, very good footwork for his age, gets rid of the ball quickly and makes accurate throws, arm strength still developing but his arm works fine, looks to have middle infield tools for the next level when he gets stronger. Right handed hitter, short contact oriented swing, inside hand path, mid to opposite field approach, looked comfortable at the plate in games and took good swings and squared the ball up well. Defense will carry him until he gets stronger.
