2020 Mid-Atlantic Prospect Showcase
Jake Beaney is a 2022 C/RHP, MIF, OF, UT with a 6-0 150 lb. frame from Belvidere, NJ who attends Belvidere. Recorded a 7.25 second sixty-yard dash time. Long, lean frame with plenty of projection remaining and room to fill out. Primary catcher with a developing defensive skill set, two hand receiving skills and elongated mid-line transfers. Gains ground towards target fairly well with accurate throws recorded up to 72 mph in drills. Secondary right-handed pitcher that works from a simple delivery with belt high leg lift into balance and a slight cross-body landing point. Works from a high three-quarters arm slot with slight hook on the backside of the arm swing, fastball worked in the upper-70s for the duration of his outing and topped out at 80 mph. Mixed in developing breaking ball that varied in shape and flashes depth through the zone when fully in sync. Developing feel for pitching with high upside and projection. Right-handed hitter that hits from a slightly open stance with a high hand set, high back elbow and hover trigger for timing. Incorporates exaggerated hand load and rotational lower half mechanics to get to launch, matching plane effectively to produce some line drive impact to the pull-side. Leveraged stroke with consistent bat-to-ball skills and some barrel accuracy when on time. Plenty of physical projection remaining with upside on the mound as he matures.
