LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2017 Sunshine Northeast Showcase
Justin Ross is a 2018 RHP/OF with a 5-9 150 lb. frame from Melville, NY who attends Half Hollow Hills West. Medium, square shouldered frame with a lean and projectable build, room to fill throughout moving forward. Ran a 7.81 60-yard dash. Primary righthanded pitcher, uses a side step moving into delivery, gets tall on backside with a leg lift just above belt. Shows a full arm actin through the back working consistently to a three-quarters arm slot, will occasionally get higher at release. Steady tempo and strides on line, pitches to contact and fills up the zone with fastball. Topped out at 74 mph, mostly true in life and maintained velocity well, gets to either side when on top of the ball. Pitched off his fastball mostly but did show a nice feel for 12-6 curveball with short depth and threw it for strikes. Didn't work out from the outfield but did make a nice diving catch in right field in live action. Righthanded hitter, begins with an upright and narrow stance, nice weight shift through lower half and generates some lift through the zone with nice bat speed. Very good student.
