LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2019 PG South Top Prospect Games at Texas A&M
Matthew Houston is a 2022 C/3B with a 6-1 200 lb. frame from Longview, TX who attends Hallsville. Big and strong athletic build, stands out physically. Right handed hitter, hits from an open stance with a simple shift into contact, sinks into his strong hips very well and creates present bat speed and power, very consistent and repeatable approach that really played well in the games, has feel for the barrel, limited head movement, ball exploded off his bat a couple of times. Catching fundamentals are still young, tends to pop straight up to throw and an over the top release point, can get low and flexible in his set and receives the ball well, did a good job on difficult pop ups. Bat stands out at a premium position. Excellent student. Named to the South Top Prospect Games Top Prospect List.
