LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2004 National Showcase
Mario Duarte is a well built 6'2/192 OF from Tampa, FL. He has some big league tools with his plus outfield arm and 6.8 60 speed. He's a good outfielder who has had a lot of success with the bat. He shows exceptional hitting ability, but will most likely need to make some adjustments in pro or highest level college play. At Tropicana Field he showed an arm bar and was swinging around the ball with a somewhat long swing. He is aggressive and he has proven results so maybe that swing will work for him. He is a very interesting prospect, and in our opinion, would be even more so with a better approach. He is an athlete! He is an excellent student. Mario was selected and attended the PG AFLAC Showcase in Baltimore.
