LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2021 National Showcase
Hayden Murphy is a 2022 RHP/3B with a 6-3 185 lb. frame from Chula, GA who attends Tiftarea Academy. Young lean athletic build with lots of physical projection still ahead. Slow paced delivery, bit cross body and closed on release out front, high 3/4's arm slot, fast and loose arm, has good angle to the plate. Fastball topped out at 92 mph, lots more velocity there as he adds strength and physical maturity, gets occasional running life on his 4-seamer, also looked like he threw some upper 80's 2-seamers that had nice dive to them. Change up was an outstanding pitch, firm with very good arm speed and life. Tended to slow his arm on his slider, best sliders were at their highest velocities and thrown with conviction. Very projectable in all areas. Good student, verbal commitment to Auburn. Named to play in the Perfect Game All-American Classic.
