LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2024 Sunshine South Showcase (Tues-Wed)
Haiden Parker is a 2027 OF/RHP/2B with a 5-6 147 lb. frame from Odessa, TX who attends Permian. Smaller young build with some present strength. Right handed hitter, hits from a narrow and slightly open stance, deep long low hand load with a late drop, collapses his back side into his swing with an uphill swing plane, has some raw bat speed and jump at contact but lots of swing inconsistencies at present to work through and simplify. 7.32 runner in the sixty. Primary outfielder on defense, moves athletically to the ball and shows athleticism, footwork has been coached up, long and loose arm action with some young arm strength. Also worked out in the infield, feet and quickness were his best tools on the dirt, got to balls well and fielded the ball cleanly, arm action does not work as well in the infield. Took a turn on the mound, works from the stretch with a fast leg raise start and a quick over the top arm slot, lands a bit closed out front. Fastball topped out at 78 mph. Curveball was an outstanding pitch, created tons of spin for his age and size, really torques it hard. Good student.
