LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2004 Midwest Undergrad Showcase
Ben Graeff is a 2006 SS/2B from Crystal Lake, Illinois, with a medium build at 5'10", 150 pounds. He hits from a slightly closed stance, with good balance throughout his swing. He has a very smooth weight transfer, and an attack approach which creates a lot of bat speed. He made solid contact with line drives to all fields, and showed big power to the pull side. Defensively, he has a great glove, with a quick and smooth transfer, and a good arm action. He has excellent range and arm strength (77mph) to go along with a good feel for the middle infield positions. He has good speed for his age with a 7.18 in the 60, and a 4.40 home to first. Ben knows how the game is played and will develop into a top prospect.
