LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2018 National Showcase
Farmer Abendroth is a 2019 RHP/3B with a 6-5 175 lb. frame from Vicksburg, MS who attends IMG Academy. Tall and slender young build, especially slender in the upper half. Slow paced delivery with increasing energy to release, stays directional well with good balance, has some deception due to acceleration before release, high 3/4's arm slot. Fastball topped out at 91 mph, has been up to 93 at previous PG events, tends to lose some velocity from the stretch. Curveball was his best pitch, throws it hard with sharp and late downer action, better curveball command than fastball command, throws it where he wants and overmatched hitters with the pitch. Change up is still developing. Projectable young prospect with present arm strength and a nasty breaking ball. Good student, verbal commitment to Louisiana State.
