2024 Southwest Prospect Showcase
Noah Russo is a 2026 LHP/1B/OF with a 6-0 170 lb. frame from Phoenix, AZ who attends Boulder Creek. Features a medium-sized build with some present strength. Ran a 7.89 60-yd dash. In the OF, showed quality actions. Intent to get around and through the baseball with some quickness. Glove gets down early but flips over a tad late a times with reception that was clean and out front. Strong transfer allowed him to work to release quick where he got off accurate/downhill throws with avg. strength for his level. At 1B, displayed confident actions. Fielded every GB clean with intent to work fast and get to release where he shortened up the arm action which lessened the strength but accuracy was there. At the plate, stands taller with a narrow base. Glides forward with a subtle toe tap trigger as hands pop back into launch. Path worked more direct to the baseball with avg. bat/hand speed for his level. Inconsistent timing bad barrel feel. Majority of GBs during his round but lifted a couple to the pullside flashing some impact. On the mound, worked exclusively from the stretch. Hip high knee tuck that worked into more of a pushy lower half off the rubber. Good drift and pace down the mound, finishing hard, on-line and with length. More of a compact arm action that got up to release out of a normal 3/4 slot. Ran the FB up to 75 that had normal 4S shape and where he accidentally cut a couple. Inconsistent command of the FB, tendency to leak to armside with them. Mixed in a slurvy low 60s CB that he landed several of in-zone that produced some left-on-left whiffs.
