Daniel Duran is a 2007 RHP/OF from Brookdale HS, residing in Ecuador with a 6'1" 185 lb. frame. Duran was named to the top prospect team at the California Underclass Showcase. Duran has a strong, athletic build, with ample room to fill out and add strength. A primary pitcher, Duran has a long, clean arm action and pitches from an over the top arm slot. His arm is strong and he gets on top of ball well when his delivery is on time. Duran has good body control and is capable of developing into a power pitcher because that deliver and long action create leverage. The ball gets out of his hand well without a lot of effort. Duran's FB (84-88) at times has heavy action at plate and he can move it in and out pertty well. When on time, he tilts the FB through the bottom of the zone, which should allow him to get a lot of ground balls by forcing contact early in the count. Duran's CB and SL each have good spin and at times have sharp action. Duran shows pitchability and aggressivness with all his pitches yet can also pitch without his best stuff. He maintains a calm demeanor on the mound. A right handed hitter, Duran has good bat speed and can create easy lift at contact. He has a high step stride and an easy swing, allowing him to have excellent balance during that swing. He gets the barrel to the ball well, even with some length in his swing. Duran has good rhythm and timing which helps overcome that length. He can lift line drives and in general his hands stay inside the ball. He jumps aggressively on mistakes, has good present day power and a swing arc that suggests more in the future. In the outfield Duran gets good extension from his loose arm. His feet are good and he has an accurate and strong arm. Duran is a decent two-way college prospect at the D1 level, but his brightest future is on the mound where he is a legitimate D1 caliber prospect.
PG Grade 9.0

Daniel Duran is a 2007 RHP/OF from Brookdale HS, residing in Ecuador with a 6'1" 185 lb. frame. Named to the Top Prospect Team, Duran has a strong and athletic body type and is likely to add more muscle in the coming years and be able to handle it. On the mound, Duran has a long and clean arm action, creating leverage while doing a nice job of staying on top of his pitches. He has an over the top arm slot and it is a strong arm. Duran is a decent athlete and has good body control during his power type delivery. The ball gets out of his hand well and his fastball (up to 85 in Hawaii, been known by PG to bump near 90) has heavy action at plate. He moves the fastball in and out well and even if he challenges in the middle, he tilts the ball well through the zone and can get ground balls that way. Duran's curveball and slider both have tight spin and sharp action at times. The slider looked like it was ahead of the curveball and as he develops that pitch, Duran has a chance to have an above average two plane power slider. He shows pitchability and aggressivness on the mound, where he looks pretty comfortable. However, he could be an asset in a college offense because Duran has excellent bat speed and can easily lift the ball, suggesting that he will put up good power numbers as his career moves along. His hands are alive in his swing, particularly at contact. Duran is a rhythm type hitter with his high step stride and easy swing. He has excellent balance during that swing and gets the barrel to ball pretty easily. His hands stay inside pretty well and he jumps on mistakes. Duran has good present day power and his swing arc suggests more, as does is bat speed. He is a 7.40 runner. On defense Duran gets to good extension with his loose arm that will play in right field. His feet are good and he is accurate with that arm. Duran is a two-way college prospect with power in the bat and a potential upper 80s arm on mound. As a resident of Ecuador, Duran is not currently eligible for the MLB draft.
