LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2022 Kansas City Indoor Showcase
Jake Russell is a 2023 OF with a 5-11 150 lb. frame from Overland Park, KS who attends Blue Valley. Slender young build. Primary outfielder on defense, runs the sixty in 7.46. Charges the ball aggressively, still developing his footwork through the ball and through release, arm works well with some projection as he gets stronger. Right handed hitter, hits from an upright closed stance with a short stride into contact, gets his front shoulder all the way turned in, hand drop load that creates some uphill plane to the ball, swings hard looking to drive the ball, raw bat speed will continue to improve with additional strength. Good student.
