LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2004 World Showcase
Gilfillan is a live bodied catcher with a good lean projectable body. He showed us a very balanced tool set in Fort Myers. Gilfillan’s arm strength is solid big league average and he turned in a couple of pop times under 1.90. If he could shorten his arm stroke just a bit, he could be even quicker. Gilfillan also looked like he had very good agility behind the plate. Offensively, Gilfillan is a front foot hitter with a short line drive swing. He drove the ball hard up the middle during batting practice and looks like he’s going to be a high average hitter at the next level. Gilfillan is a very good student who has signed to go to Texas. His size, arm, running speed and athletic ability should create some serious scouting interest.
