LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2023 13U/14U Coastal Prospect Showcase
Ryan Welch is a 2027 1B/RHP/3B with a 6-0 211 lb. frame from Mechanicsville, MD who attends Chopticon. Strong built, broad frame with present strength and advanced physicality especially for his class. Ran the 60 yard dash in 7.46 seconds. Primary position 1B, showing solid mobility and comfort working around the bag through his reps. Glove work is present and the arm really played as he made accurate throws up to 83 mph across the diamond. Secondary RHP, using a simple and repeatable delivery, loading tall over the rubber allowing him to use his strong lower half. Clean direction, leveraging the ball downhill. FB up to 84 mph with heavy boring action to the arm side and a touch of downhill tilt. Breaking ball with two-plane shape and decent spin with late bite. RHH loading well into his backside pre-pitch and is fluid throughout his mechanics. Hand speed present with advanced musculature and gets on plane quickly to launch. Will get a touch rotational creating top-spin but when on time and in the middle of the field there is excellent trajectory off the barrel. Legitimate two-way skill set to watch in the coming months.
