LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2023 14U Main Event Showcase  
Ja’cai Johnson is a 2028 1B/3B with a 5-11 208 lb. frame from North Lauderdale, FL who attends St Thomas Aquinas. Medium frame with an extra-large present build. Ran a 9.15 second 60-yard dash. Primary first baseman, young actions to the ball, plays back on it a bit and fields deep, simple transitions through receiving and into necessary throws, developing arm strength and overall will improve quickness around the bag with time. Right-handed hitter, tall setup and narrow in the base, short stride into his swing and mostly hands-oriented with his process, level through the zone and works to stay to the middle of the field, developing overall consistency of the approach.
