LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2023 New York Workout Showcase (Thursday)
Marcello Verissimo is a 2026 C/1B with a 5-9 155 lb. frame from Yonkers, NY who attends Archbishop Stepinac. Verissimo works from a young still plenty projectable build with time to fill out as a '26 prospect. Exclusively from his primary spot behind the plate, he displayed a side saddle set to start with intent to work on top of throws, releasing from a consistent compact arm action up to 71 mph. He has further room to gain ground in the footwork with arm strength expected to develop nicely in the future. Offensively, the righty started from a slightly open narrow base with a high back elbow, utilizing a toe tap trigger to produce consistent contact gap to gap. He maintained balance throughout the stroke with solid barrel control to pair. Posted an exit velo of 73 mph.
