LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2024 Class of 2027 All-American Games
Luke Samples is a 2027 RHP/1B with a 6-7 195 lb. frame from Durham, NC who attends C E Jordan. Very tall and long build, high waisted with long arm and legs. Throws from a high 3/4's to over the top arm slot, slow and controlled pace to his delivery, lands in line with good direction into his release with good extension out front. Fastball topped out at 86 mph with steep downhill plane when down in the zone, straightened out up in the zone. Threw both a slider and a curveball, slider was the better pitch with some late bite and depth and good tunneling with his fastball. Had an idea about locating his pitches, especially away from right handed hitters. Plays the outfield when not on the mound, throws from a lower arm slot than on the mound with a long and whippy arm action. Right handed hitter, hits from a wide base with an early shift to his front side, uphill swing plane with an inside swing path, upper body movement can get him off balance at times. Excellent student. Named to the Class of 2027 All-American Games Top Prospect List.
