LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2006 Spring Top Prospect Showcase
Adam Rice is a 2006 1B/OF/C with a 6'1'', 200 lb. frame from Cedar Rapids, IA, who attends Kennedy HS. Strong, well built player with overall body strength. Rice has good speed for his size. He plays hard, hustles, and has fun playing the game. Defensively he has position flexibility, but he moved his feet well around the first base bag and this looks like his primary position. Rice has the arm strength to handle other positions such as 3B or the outfield. At the plate he is a right handed hitter who uses a leg lift trigger. Rice has bat speed and has strength in his swing. He is an aggressive hitter, and he can drive the ball hard when it is centered. For being a power hitter with an aggressive swing, he doesn't swing and miss often showing good contact skills. Rice has very good upside and looks like the type of player that will work hard and continue to improve. He is a very good student as well.
