2023 Mid-Atlantic Indoor Showcase (Saturday)
Dominic Ruggiero is a 2025 LHP/1B, OF with a 5-11 158 lb. frame from Royersford, PA who attends Spring-Ford. Medium, high waisted frame with long levers and plenty of room to fill out. Recorded a 7.95 second sixty-yard dash time. Primary left-handed pitcher that worked from a full windup delivery with a slightly higher than belt high leg lift and good lower half movements down the slope. Aggressive mentality, comes right at the hitter from a compact three-quarters arm slot. Fastball worked in the mid-to-upper 70s for the majority of his outing and topped out at 80 mph in this look. Mixed in promising secondary offerings, as his curveball showed late vertical depth and killed spin on changeup that has some fade. Developing command of the strike zone, will continue to improve with minor refinements mechanically and additional velocity. Secondary outfielder with a fundamentally sound defensive skill set. Used deliberate pace to his actions into the fielding process, fielding properly off his front foot and gathers cleanly. Transitions uphill into release and recorded arm strength up to 76 mph during drills. Left-handed hitter that hits from a wider, open stance with a high hand set, high back elbow and small inward stride into launch. Displayed flatter swing path with developing feel for the barrel, made consistent contact to the pullside mostly and will continue to improve with proper swing adjustments and additional strength. Projectable, young prospect with legitimate upside on the mound. Excellent Student.
