LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2016 Midwest Underclass Showcase
Jakob Woods is a 2018 SS/RHP with a 6-3 185 lb. frame from Maryville, MO who attends Maryville HS. Tall and angular athletic build, some present strength with plenty of room for more. Right handed hitter, straight stance, loose and fluid swing with a nice shift into contact, gets extension and separation through contact, good bat speed, can get a bit long at times but like the looseness and projection, has hitting tools to develop. 6.89 runner, is light on his feet defensively and moves well through the ball, soft hands, 3/4's arm slot with good carry to his throws, might outgrow shortstop as he continues to fill out. Also pitched, easy low effort delivery, arm is loose and projectable, fastball topped out at 78 mph but more velocity in there. Good student.
