LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2022 14U National Showcase
Beau Peterson is a 2026 C/RHP/3B with a 6-2 185 lb. frame from Shawnee, KS who attends Mill Valley. Large, broad shouldered frame with well-proportioned strength and tons of physical projection remaining. Primary catcher that receives from a higher, side-saddled stance with soft hands and slightly round mid-line transfer. Gains ground towards his target by using step-and-replace footwork, works into a shorter arm action and has plenty of present arm strength. Recorded arm strength up to 76 mph from behind the plate during drills. Secondary right-handed pitcher that worked from an abbreviated windup with a slightly coiled leg lift and good lower half movements down the slope. Fastball worked in the mid-to-upper 80s for the majority of his outing from a high three-quarters arm slot and topped out at 90 mph in this look. Generates heavy downhill plane to his fastball and has fairly good command of the strike zone. Mixed in firm two-plane slider with late horizontal tilt to it, generating numerous swings-and-misses with it, while landing it for strikes early in the count. Electric arm speed with more velocity in the tank. Left-handed hitter that hits from a well-balance, even stance with a leg lift trigger for timing. Incorporates good hip torque and creates separation into contact, displays plenty of present bat speed and legitimate power to the middle and pull sides of the field. Slightly inside hand path with good feel for the barrel and loud impact when he gets the bat head out in-front. Strong, athletic prospect with advanced tools and tons of projection remaining on both sides of the ball. Named to the 2022 14U PG Select Baseball Festival. Excellent Student. Verbally committed to Nebraska.
