LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2016 Northeast Underclass Showcase
Kavim Bhatnagar is a 2018 RHP/1B with a 6-2 160 lb. frame from Nashua, NH who attends Nashua South High School. Large frame, very lean, slender build, athleticism, long limbs, and room to continue to develop physically and add strength. Primary right handed pitcher, leg raise to belt, longer arm action, measured stride to the plate, open landing, hard landing on front leg, and threw from a high three quarter arm slot. Developing arm strength and angle to plate created via high slot. Fastball worked 66-68 mph with short arm side life and looked to work inside on hitters. Curveball showed developing spin and big depth, while getting over for strikes. Worked best when in the lower third of the zone getting weak ground ball contact. Also worked out at first base, fielded the ball clean with a bend from waist and good actions through the ball. At the plate, started with a narrow base, hunch in stance, and leg lift timing mechanism. Linear swing through zone, loose grip on the barrel, and a swing that worked up the middle with contact. Very good student.
