LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2021 Florida Prospect Showcase
Jose Arauz is a 2023 RHP/3B, OF with a 5-10 158 lb. frame from Hialeah, FL who attends Monsignor Edward Pace. As a secondary pitcher he shows off his athleticism on the mound, moves around really well and has a quick arm after a short arm swing. Fastball up to 81 mph from a 3/4s arm slot and has nice balance in his lower half through his mechanics. Curve ball was a little bit of a spinner, needs to throw with more intent. Dropped down on a curve as well for a sweeping slider that was nice. In the outfield he comes at the ball aggressively, fields it cleanly on front foot and carry on his throws. During batting practice he works the inside part of the ball with a rotational swing plane. Would sometimes find himself not able to extend his hands after contact, but has enough barrel skills and bat speed. Good student.
