LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2024 National Academic Showcase (Tues-Wed)
Boston Farmer is a 2027 LHP/1B/OF with a 5-7 150 lb. frame from Hernando, MS who attends DeSoto Central. Smaller young build with lots of growing ahead of him. Works from a full wind up with a very high leg raise over the rubber, full arm path in back to a 3/4's arm slot coming through, leg raise can impact his balance and timing. Fastball was mostly in the upper 60's and topped out at 72 mph early, mostly straight. Also threw a sot curveball with developing spin. 7.62 runner in the sixty. Worked out both in the outfield and at first base on defense, showed solid fundamentals at both positions with proper footwork and glove positioning, throws from a lower arm slot from both positions. Left handed hitter, hits from a balanced open stance with a stride in to close, has some barrel control and moved the ball around the field, bat speed will continue to improve with additional strength. Excellent student.
