LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2015 National Indoor Showcase  
Nate Witherspoon is a 2016 LHP/1B with a 6-4 180 lb. frame from Eureka, MO who attends Eureka HS. Long and loose athletic build, very projectable physically. Works from the stretch and a low hand start, full clean arm action, high 3/4's arm slot, works downhill well. Low 80's fastball, topped out at 83 mph, no reason he shouldn't continue to add velocity as he gets stronger. Fastball is mostly straight, keeps in low in the zone and induces early count ground ball contact. Outstanding change up for his age with nice sink an dive, maintains arm speed and arm slot well on the pitch. Rare slider but it showed the proper power and plane and should develop nicely. Showed good athleticism defensively at first base. Follow closely, is just going to keep getting better and better with time. Good student.
