LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2011 National Showcase
Taylore Cherry is a 2012 RHP with a 6-9 260 lb. frame from Dayton, OH who attends Vandalia Butler HS. Oversized physical build, lacks present muscle definition, obvious right handed C.C. Sabathia comparison in all areas. Short back turn delivery, simple mechanics, very low effort release, throws under control. 4-seam fastball at 94 mph whenever he wants it, sinks FB at 91-92 with hard late heavy life, outstanding arm speed and hard sink on change up, plus present pitch, can pitch right now with fastball/change up life and location. Fair curveball spin, occasional flatter slider shape, more often big sweeping break, commands CB as well as other pitches. Occasional trouble commanding pitches to glove side. Huge upside, still just scratching the surface. Good student, verbal commitment to North Carolina. Named to the Perfect Game All American Classic team.
