LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2014 Sunshine South Showcase
Garrett Gayle is a 2016 RHP/3B with a 6-0 175 lb. frame from Cypress, TX who attends Cypress Woods HS. Slender young athletic build, lots of room to get stronger. Compact arm action, high 3/4's arm slot, hides the ball well and has deception, works downhill well. Fastball topped out at 85 mph, mostly straight but spotted it very well. Threw almost all fastballs and was very effective due to command, threw one breaking ball that flashed short, quick biting action but otherwise dominated with his fastball. Will need to mix in secondary pitches more in the future. Right handed hitter, big head tilt to start swing changes eye angle, pre-stride, handles the barrel well and makes contact but lack of well timed load inhibits shift and bat speed, has the tools to improve as a hitter with adjustments. Good young athlete. Good student.
