2014 National Showcase
Chris Gau is a 2015 RHP/OF with a 6-2 185 lb. frame from Jacksonville, FL who attends University Christian HS. Tall slender athletic build, lots of room to get stronger, projects well physically. Versatile two-way prospect. Slow paced short leg raise delivery, accelerates to the plate, some energy at release. Fastball topped at 88 mph, good running action at times and can ride up in the zone as well, works mostly low and to the corners. Very good curveball, tight spin with good power and bite, has confidence in curveball and throws it to spots. Developing change up is a bit firm. Left handed hitter, very sound hitting approach, deep hand load but a direct path to contact, stays balanced with a good shift into contact, loose strong hands, barrels up consistently with some gap power. 7.09 runner, big raw arm strength in the outfield with young footwork and actions. Very projectable and could really blossom with strength and physical maturity.
