LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2018 National Showcase
Joseph Charles is a 2019 RHP/OF with a 6-3 190 lb. frame from Celebration, FL who attends The First Academy. Very athletic build and very projectable physically. Fast paced delivery especially in his leg raise, slows down his pace from the stretch, fast and loose arm. Fastball topped out at 94 mph frequently, works 4-seam/2-seam with late running life at times, works low in the strike zone well. Throws both a curveball and slider, has good spin on both but shows better present feel for his curveball. Notably better in his command and stuff this game against right handed hitters. High ceiling arm that will continue to improve as he gets more and more innings and calms down his mechanics. Right handed hitter, hits from an even base with an active hand start, quick hands, gets out to his front side early, generates lots of raw bat speed. Two way talent as a right fielder. Excellent student, verbal commitment to North Carolina. Selected to play in the Perfect Game All-American Classic.
