LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2023 Northeast Indoor Showcase (Sunday)
Raphael Da Rocha is a 2026 OF/RHP with a 5-8 148 lb. frame from Clark, NJ who attends Arthur L Johnson. Da Rocha works from a young lean build with additional room to fill out and add strength as a '26 prospect. From his primary OF spot, he showcased a compact arm action and lower slot with clean glove work present. He consistently produced throws on the bag with developing arm strength up to 76 mph. Da Rocha also worked on the mound where he started from the 1B side of the rubber with a compact chest high hand set. He effectively pitched to contact with refining spin in the arsenal. Offensively, the righty started from a narrow stance with hover to the leg trigger generating line drive impact back up the middle of the field. He stayed connected well and posted an exit velo of 78 mph. Ran a 5.12 forty yard dash. Good student.
