LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2021 Great Lakes Indoor Showcase (Saturday)
Jonathan D Drake is a 2022 RHP/IF with a 6-0 215 lb. frame from Grosse Pointe Park, MI who attends Grosse Pointe South. Strong looking physical build. Well paced delivery on the mound with a deep arm action in back, calm lower half mechanics with good direction to the plate. Mid-70's fastball, topped out at 77 mph, has been up to 80 mph at PG showcases in the pate, gets good arm side running life at times. Curveball was a solid second pitch for him this outing with some sharpness and depth iin the mid-60's. Right handed hitter, hits from an open stance with a simple rotational swing, tends to stay on his backside and not get into his strong lower half, flashed the ability to drive the ball hard to the pull side. 7.41 runner in the sixty. Also plays the infield when not pitching with third base actions. Good student.
