LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2018 Sunshine Southeast Showcase
Houston High is a 2020 C/RHP, 1B, OF with a 6-4 210 lb. frame from Nashville, TN who attends Lipscomb Academy. Extra large frame, strong build. Ran a 7.49 second 60 yard dash. Primary catcher, sets up with a crouched slightly leaning forward side saddle stance, receives the baseball out in front with two hands, gets on top of the ball, high effort while uncoiling into throw downs, quick arm with some strength behind it, topped out at 78 mph from behind the plate with a 2.03 second best pop. Secondary righthanded pitcher, short arm action up to a high 3/4 arm slot, gets mechanical with delivery, tight release getting downhill throwing easy, low effort delivery that flashed promise on the mound. Fastball topped out at 83 mph, mixed in an 11-to-5 curveball with good depth and feel for the pitch, very raw on the mound and with more reps could improve quickly. Righthanded hitter, high hand set with a high back elbow, downhill swing plane, some rotational actions present bat speed and quickness to the stroke, drives the baseball when getting on plane, needs to work more on consistency to swing plane but it flashed when squared and on time. Great student.
