LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2024 New York Indoor Showcase (Sunday)
Dillan Castellano-Smith is a 2027 C/1B/UT with a 5-11 147 lb. frame from Kinnelon, NJ who attends Kinnelon. Castellano-Smith works from a young lean build with plenty of time to add strength and fill out as a '27 prospect. Starting as a primary C, showcased a wider squared set with quick transfers and a medium arm path to produce throws consistently around the bag. Has further room to stay down to receive with arm strength expected to continue developing in the future. Posted a 2.29 pop time. From the IF, flashed good range to the backhand with a clean fielding funnel present. Clear softness to the hands with room to refine the arm action and loosen up across the diamond. Ultimately topped out at 65 mph. Offensively, started from an open base with a relaxed low hand set and low back elbow. Attempted to create impact out in front with contact to all parts of the field. Projects for additional strength. Posted an exit velo of 69 mph. Good student.
