LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2013 Sunshine West Showcase
Jaiden France is a 2014 SS/RHP, IF with a 6-3 195 lb. frame from Santa Clarita, CA who attends Golden Valley. Large frame, long lean athletic build with wiry strength. Bat stood out, good bat speed, power potential as he adds mass to his wiry strong frame. High hand set, leg lift trigger, good bat control, has lift in swing, doubles power at present with more to come, tools to develop as a hitter. Moves well in the outfield, can get better momentum into throws for higher present velocity, carries glove well out front in the infield with good footwork, also showed well picking throws out of the dirt at 1B. Pitches with a short two-piece arm action, the fact that he threw harder from the mound than the outfield is evidence that he has the raw arm speed to throw harder from the outfield and infield with more efficient use of lower half in throwing motion. Has shown positive development to this point, if it continues he has a chance to be a quality contributor at the next level. Good student.
