LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2020 California Workout Camp (Saturday)
Josiah Hartshorn is a 2025 OF/LHP, 1B with a 5-11 170 lb. frame from Anaheim, CA who attends Orange Lutheran. Medium frame with an already starting to fill out type build. Strength visible throughout the frame and projects in a big way. Ran a 7.44 second sixty yard dash. Primary Outfielder, quick first step instincts as he takes efficient routes to the baseball. Two hand gather at times and then works into a quick transfer. Low and hard throws with carry to the baseball as he threw it 86 mph during drills. Young fundamentals but huge arm strength and confident with the glove. Secondary Left-Handed Pitcher, did a good job of staying balanced throughout the delivery with a simple, repeatable motion. Full arm action as he delivered from a three-quarter slot with whip to the arm. Slight crossfire delivery making him very deceptive with his three pitch mix. Got extended down the mound and used the lower half nicely. Fastball up to 85 mph with arm side run while proving he can work all four quadrants with it. Curveball showing 1-to-7 break in the upper-60's and a tumbling changeup in the low-70's. Legit swing and miss stuff while showing nothing but tremendous upside on the mound going forward. Secondary First Baseman, sitting back on the baseball a bit as he gathers out front with ease. Quick transfers and then showed off the arm again. More than serviceable at first with feel showing for the position. Switch Hitter, from the right-side, starting with a pinched back knee before working into a higher leg lift. Hands are quiet as he drops the bat head with authority. Big time juice in the bat as he drove it with ease around the park. He also homered during BP to the pull-side. From the left-side, working with a similar stance from this side as he works into a toe-tap to stride. Stays short and simple to the baseball as he throws hands at it. Pull-side approach and did a nice job of finding barrels. Much more polished from the left-side but shows legit potential to be a switch hitter. Outstanding Student. Named to California Workout Camp Top Prospect List.
