LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2022 National Indoor Showcase (Saturday)
Jack Buckalew is a 2023 RHP/OF with a 5-10 190 lb. frame from Monticello, IL who attends Monticello. Medium frame and sturdy build with strength. Primary right-handed pitcher with a medium leg lift and a short, online stride down the hill. Utilizes a compact arm circle and comes from a high three-quarters slot, lacks extension at times. Fastball is straight with good ride through the zone, did a nice job of filling up the zone and attacking batters with the fastball. Curveball has 11-5 shape, flashing 12-6 shape at times, with depth and teeth. Gained feel for the pitch as the outing went on, proved he could land it for strikes. Gets a bit slurvy when he rushes it, but still maintains tightness. Also flashed a changeup, maintained his arm speed when throwing it, showed slight fade. Secondary outfielder who moves well laterally, fields the ball cleanly out front and continues his momentum towards the target, has obvious arm strength present. Right-handed hitter with a slightly open stance and a leg lift trigger. Coils back deep, shows a very flat bat path and tends to cut off the stroke, rather than reaching extension. Rigid/segmented operation at present, repeats it well and shows some pull side pop. Good student. Named to the 2022 National Indoor Showcase Top Prospect List.
