2014 National Showcase
Dakota Chalmers is a 2015 RHP/SS with a 6-3 170 lb. frame from Gainesville, GA who attends Lakeview Academy. Tall slender young build, very projectable physically. Full arm circle in back, fast arm coming through, tends to get hard on his front side with some energy at release. Fastball topped out at 91 mph with good running life, have seen up to 92 mph this summer. Primary breaking ball pitcher this outing, flashed plus potential on his slider/curveball. Slider is nasty at times with tight spin and sharp bite with surprising depth, took off velocity on slider for slower/bigger curveball with equally hard spin. Rare change up. Mechanics and ability to repeat are still young but has projectable velocity and potential plus breaking balls. Lots to like. Good student, verbal commitment to Georgia.
