LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2016 Great Lakes Showcase
Ryan Piontek is a 2018 3B/1B with a 5-10 175 lb. frame from South Elgin, IL who attends St Charles North. Medium, athletic frame with solid present build and good projectable room to fill remaining. Ran 60 yard dash in 7.58 seconds. Sets up to hit from slightly closed off stance, upright set with high hand set. Swings the bat hard with big time intent, tries to drive the baseball into the air and is successful at doing so. Extends well through contact and creates loft, good approach at the plate with patience and understanding of the strike zone. Worked out defensively in the infield and behind the plate. Shows solid range in the infield to both sides, surrounds the ball well and fields cleanly out front. Clean exchanges, shows solid arm strength across the diamond up to 70 MPH. Sets up behind the plate slightly side-saddled with solid flex, receives with two hands and comes forward out of crouch well, throws down to 2nd base with pop time as low as 2.28 seconds. Very good student.
