LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2024 Sunshine South Showcase (Tues-Wed)
Cade Whitmore is a 2027 3B/RHP/1B with a 6-6 240 lb. frame from Pinehurst, TX who attends Homeschool. Primary 3B with a physical frame. Profiles well on the corner given his size. Fields it cleanly and made plays from short during workouts. Showed pretty good glovework and moved well for his size. Throws made with good accuracy and carry across the diamond from a steep slot. Switch hitter with good impact off the barrel. From the right side sets up with a narrow base and more upright in his stance. uses a big front leg rock back into stride into contact and showed good rhythm in the box. Stays pretty short to it and ball jumps off bat when on time and on plane. From the left side he sets up slightly open with a low elbow set. Coils the bat on the load a bit. Looked better from the right side but could still impact it the other way from the left side with good feel to leverage and launch. Strong kid with power projecting well. Also pitched throwing from the windup. Uses a slow methodical sidestep with a belt high leg lift into a shorter arm swing from a standard 3/4 slot working downhill and online. Fastball worked up to 81 and could locate it. Slider was the go-to with good shape and some bite. Also flashed a change with depth to it but arm slows down before release and will need to be more consistent with this. Projectable actions across the board.
