LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2017 Sunshine Northeast Showcase
John Zdankowski is a 2020 2B/RHP, 3B with a 5-9 145 lb. frame from Hillsdale, NJ who attends Pascack Valley. Young, athletic frame with square shoulders and a lean, projectable build with room to fill throughout. Ran a 7.96 60-yard dash. Primary middle infielder, fields the ball out front and funnels well, clean exchange and release, light on feet with sound fundamentals, full arm action through the back and gets on top, shows accuracy, will continue to develop with physical strength gains. Also pitched, leg lift up to belt, some drop and drive with lower half coming down the mound. Works to a three-quarters arm slot, occasionally under fastball but shows running life when on top, topped out at 73 mph, flashed 11-5 curveball at 63 mph. Righthanded hitter, begins with a crouched and open stance, high hand set at the plate. Shifts weight well through lower half and shows a line drive swing plane through the zone. Contact approach, looks to lift out front and does a nice job of remaining balanced throughout. Very good student.
