LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2024 Jr. National Showcase
Jacob Webster is a 2026 SS/RHP with a 6-3 190 lb. frame from Victorville, CA who attends Oak Hills. Tall high waisted athletic build with lots of room to get stronger, has some lower half strength. Switch-hitter at the plate, hits from a similar approach with a spread lower half and hanging front leg load, has much better bat speed from the right side presently, has real jump and carry from the right side, swings hard and impacts the ball. 6.81 runner in the sixty. Primary shortstop on defense, moves well for his size and keeps his feet moving, tends to bend at the waist fielding ground balls, throws from an over the top slot and creates carry, may end up at third base depending on how much he grows. Also pitched, works from the third base side of the rubber, lands closed out front but gets over his front side, high 3/4's arm slot creates good angle to the plate, repeats his mechanics very well. Fastball topped out at 88 mph, commands the zone well with his fastball and works to both sides of the plate, also threw a hard curveball that flashed some depth and was effective. Has a chance on the mound as a two-way talent. Good student, verbal commitment to UC Santa Barbara.
