LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2019 14U National Showcase
Wesley Mendes is a 2023 LHP/OF with a 6-0 155 lb. frame from Tampa, FL who attends Tampa Jesuit. Medium and athletic frame, lean with plenty of projection remaining. Ran a 7.22 second 60 yard dash. Primary lefthanded pitcher, some deception to his delivery that starts with a high leg lift, takes his arm back to a quick arm action up to a high 3/4 arm slot, projectable arm speed that projects for more moving forward, extends well out in front and the ball comes out cleanly. Fastball worked well to both sides of the plate up to 83 mph, some power to his 12-6 curveball that projects well also, tunnels pitches well and showed advanced command on the bump during his outing. Secondary outfielder, athleticism to actions, fields the ball out in front, works online with his release and arm stroke, topped out at 86 mph from the outfield. Righthanded hitter, sets up at the plate with a slightly open stance, loose hands and a downhill swing plane, rocks into load before the whipping the barrel through the hitting zone, shifts well and executes his line drive approach, impressive two-way talent. Named to 2019 14U National Top Prospect List.
