LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2024 WWBA Workout Showcase (July 5)
Izaiah Slaughter is a 2026 C/OF with a 5-10 195 lb. frame from Bowling Green, KY who attends Greenwood. Medium frame with a thick, strong build, showing ample strength and moving quite well on his feet. Ran the 60 yard dash in 6.96 seconds. Primary position catcher, working from an offset traditional stance and showing the ability to work inline and replace feet well. Quick hands with clean midline exchange and works through a standard compact catchers arm action. Rotates shoulders tightly and showed feeds up to 72 mph on a pop time best 1.97 seconds down to the bag. RHH working from an even base and lower handset leading to a compact powerful stroke. Strong base that serves him well here, using a small stride to get on time. Rigid actions to impact and the ball gets off the barrel quickly. There is more to come from the power side and has the look of an offensive catcher long term. Very good student as well.
