LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2014 National Underclass South Showcase
Steven Svoboda is a 2017 RHP/OF with a 6-1 180 lb. frame from Pflugerville, TX who attends Hendrickson HS. Tall lanky build, looks taller than listed, broad shoulders with plenty of room to fill out. Fast paced delivery with some effort on release, tends to open early and fall off to the first base side, 3/4's arm slot, has deception but difficult mechanics to repeat consistently. Fastball topped out at 83 mph, lots of running action. Showed some depth on his curveball at times, 10/4 sweeping action, effective when in the strike zone. Left handed hitter, has some strength and swings hard, ball comes off the barrel hard when squared, hitting mechanics not consistent yet. 7.44 runner, long slinging arm action from the outfield. Has obvious arm strength for his age, toning down his mechanics and effort will be key to his development on the mound.
