LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2007 California Underclass Showcase
Derek Legg is a 2008 MIF with a 5'11'', 160 lb. frame from Murrieta CA, who attends Vista Murrieta HS. He has a lean, athletically built body and is wiry strong. Legg did not have an outstanding event in terms of performance, but his ability was evident. More than anything, Legg is an aggressive player and looks built fo the college game. He is a contact, line drive typ of hitter, with a flat easy swing. He competes well on both sides of the plate, with a little pop on the left side, where he looked best. His hands work well and he swings with balance. Defensively he is a hard nosed competitor that likely ends every game with a dirty uniform. His range may eventually limit him to 2nd base at the D1 level, but his competitiveness could allow him to succeed as shortstop. Legg is a gamer with ability and plays a winning style of ball that plays really well in college. As he gets stronger his overall game will be enhanced. He committed to Long Beach State before his senior year.
