LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2024 National Underclass Showcase-Main Event
Jacob Akins is a 2028 2B/RHP/C with a 5-4 120 lb. frame from Mooreville, MS who attends Mooreville. Smaller young build. 8.23 runner in the sixty. Primary second baseman on defense, has quick feet for his size and age and gets to his spots well, gets his glove down early while working through the ball, fielded everything cleanly and had good transitions into his throws, arm strength still developing. Right handed hitter, hits from a shoulder turn load and tight hands, longer swing path, will need to learn to get the bat head out sooner for more consistent square contact, mostly opposite field contact. Also pitched, works exclusively from the stretch with a high leg raise start, has a medium length arm circle to a 3/4's arm slot, will drop arm slot lower at times. Fastball was in the mid-60's with consistent cutting action, some of it big, threw strikes with his fastball/cutter and challenged hitters. Excellent student.
