LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2022 National Academic Showcase (Tues/Wed)
Wyatt Rudden is a 2025 RHP/1B, 3B, OF with a 6-0 160 lb. frame from Greenwood Village, CO who attends Cherry Creek. Wyatt has an average size and build about him, but possesses a very strong arm. From the mound, Rudden showed a low 80's fastball topping out at 82-mph, and the ability to execute two off speed pitches. The fastball has some natural cut at times due to a smooth reverse "C' type arm action. Wyatt's curveball has a 11/5 shape with late biting action and the changeup has good gap in velocity from the fastball. Wyatt really impressed from the outfield with his arm strength reaching 90-mph on his throws. He does a nice job staying low into the ball and all transfers and gatherings are smooth. The baseball comes out well and with his lower trajectory throws were accurate. Rudden has a hard swing from a wide base at the plate. Shows good ability here to make contact but much of it was out front and a bit off balance. With added strength in lower half and a more stable foundation this has potential to really come around. Wyatt is an exceptional student in the classroom. Rudden was named to the 2022 National Academic Showcase Top Team List.
