Chase Castor is a 2018 3B/RHP, 1B, OF with a 6-2 180 lb. frame from Menifee, CA who attends Paloma Valley. Large frame with broad shoulders, long limbs and beginnings of strength. Projects for additional strength while maintaining athleticism. Ran a 7.14 sixty-yard dash. Primary third baseman with clean, smooth paced footwork while traveling to and surrounding the baseball. Fluid actions while funneling out front and works through exchange efficiently. Released from a mid three-quarters arm slot producing solid carry across the infield at 82 miles per hour. Right handed hitter with an upright, open stance. Shifts into contact well with linear lower half actions. Loose path to baseball with a naturally lifted plane through extension. Showed good control off the barrel throughout the zone with the strength to drive the ball to all fields with ease. Also pitched working exclusively from the stretch. Smooth paced leg lift to belt and stayed balanced on back side at gather. Worked to the plate with tall and fall actions. Clean arm circle at take back and released from an extended three-quarters slot. Fastball flashed good life through the zone with natural cut to glove side in the low 80's, topped at 83 miles per hour. Curveball had 11/5 shape with tight spin and good depth. Will add and subtract with breaking ball creating a lot of deception to hitters. Very good student. Named to the 2017 California Uncommitted Showcase, Top Prospect List.
