Pavlos Piperakis is a 2023 OF/LHP with a 5-11 140 lb. frame from Pembroke Pines, FL who attends St. Thomas Aquinas. Medium, athletic frame with square shoulders and lean and projectable build, room to fill throughout. Ran a 7.13 60-yard dash. Primary outfielder, moves well on feet and works through the ball well, clean glove work out front, incorporates a crow hop well and shows accuracy on throws with nice carry and present arm strength, quick release, repeats actions well. Shows upside on the mound as well, turn step into a belt high leg lift; full arm action through the back working to a high three-quarters release point. Fills the zone, quick arm and fastball topped out at 83 mph, worked to either side and jumps through the zone; nice feel for curveball, 1-7 shape with depth and bite. Mixed nicely and filled the zone with both pitches. Lefthanded hitter, begins with an open stance and a high hand set with a lower back elbow; limited shift through lower half and projects with additional weight shift. Stays shorter to the ball, contact oriented approach, projects with added strength; linear to downward swing path, works the middle of the field. Excellent student.
