2023 National Underclass Showcase-Main Event
Swaraaj Pujari is a 2026 3B/RHP/1B with a 5-9 167 lb. frame from Yorktown Heights, NY who attends Yorktown. Features a medium/compact frame. Ran a 8.20 60-yd dash. In the INF, he exhibited avg. foot quickness and lateral range but present softness and skill to the hands that showed well to both the backhand and forehand side. Used a shorter arm action on throws across that he got off with accuracy and with avg. strength for his level. At the plate, he's a switch hitter who sets up similarly from both sides. He sits in a balanced stance where he uses a huge leg raise trigger that he syncs with a hand pump. He gets onto his front side a bit at landing leading to some drift. His hands throw a direct barrel with avg. quickness and with some effort for a steeper/downhill path to the baseball. Had some timing and barrel inconsistency during his BP round but produced a couple of solid low-liners during the round. He jumped on the mound for an inning of work as well where he worked exclusively from the stretch showing that same shorter arm action in the back he used in the INF and working it up to a 3/4 slot. He ran his fastball up to 77, living in the mid 70s where he lived up in the zone with it. Mixed in a sparingly used low 60s breaking ball as well.
