LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2006 National Underclass Showcase
Craig Barker is a 2008 C with a 6',160 lb frame from Hixson, TN who attends Red Bank HS. Craig has a lean athletic build with some room to fill out. At the plate Craig has a solid swing with a line-drive swing plane that produces solid middle of the field contact. Craig has a good approach at the plate with a good idea of how to hit and just needs to add strength to his build. Once he gets stronger he should show solid gap to gap pop. Behind the plate Craig was very impressive where he showed off a strong accurate arm with a quick release. He is a good receiver that has all the tools to become a quality catcher at the next level. Craig is a solid student that should attract the attention of many mid to high-level college programs.
