LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2004 Sunshine West Showcase
WP - Robbie Platt is a 2005 1B/3B from Albuquerque, NM. Platt is a strongly built 1Bman that has enough skill now to play 3B, but with added size will project him as a power 1B type. He has good strength in his forearms and generated bat-speed with his arms and body. His swing is a real good one for both power and average, short and quick on the load and directly to the ball with a fast full finish. It is a big fluid swing that we think will produce some outstanding power in the future and he can hit good pitching from what we saw. He’s also a ball player defensively with good hands and footwork around the 1B bag.
