LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2007 Midwest Top Prospect Showcase
Chris Larsen is a 2008 RHP/2B/OF with a 6'3'', 175 lb. frame from Moline, IL who attends Moline HS. He has a nice, lean pitchers build with some projection. Larsen has a compact arm action that he keeps behind his body and doesn't show the hitter the ball. He throws from a drop and drive delivery with late back side collapse and lacks balance at release. Larsen's fastball was steady at 81-83 mph and was pretty straight. He threw a low 60's curveball that lacked velocity but that he had good feel for and spotted well. Larsen has some deception in his delivery, but his command and raw stuff would be better if he used his height and length better and stayed tall in his delivery. Larsen is a good overall athlete who swings the bat with some power and moves around the field well. He is a good student.
