LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2004 Southeast Top Prospect Showcase
Jeff Ussery is a 6'3", 176 lb. 2006 shortstop from Hilton Head, South Carolina, with running speed. He showed solid arm strength (81 mph) on his throws in the infield. With good arm strength and very good accuracy, Jeff's infield tools project out well at the next level. Jeff is a switch hitter. From the right side he hits from an open stance and shows average balance in his swing with above average hand strength and fair bat speed. He tends to keep his hands in close to his body and not extend through the ball. From the left side he hits from the same stance with better bat speed, better balance and a much higher percentage of hard contacts. With added strength, Jeff projects out very well from the left side of the plate and should develop some power as well. Very good 2006 prospect. He is an excellent student.
