LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2023 Northeast Indoor Showcase (Saturday)
Dylan Palantino is a 2025 C/1B with a 5-9 178 lb. frame from Philadelphia, PA who attends St. Joseph's Prep. Medium, compact frame with strong lower half and room to physically mature. Recorded a 5.41 second forty-yard dash time. Primary catcher that received from a wider, slightly side-saddled stance with softness to his hands and a shirt, direct mid-line transfer. Gains ground out of the crouch efficiently and works into a short arm action. Produced developing arm strength up to 72 mph from behind the plate during drills. Right-handed hitter that hits from an upright, narrow base with a high hand set, high back elbow and hover trigger for timing. Whole field approach with slightly elongated swing path and developing feel for the barrel. Creates some separation into launch and produced occasional line drive impact through the middle of the field. Fairly simple stroke that will continue to improve with some minor refinements mechanically and additional strength. Excellent Student.
