LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2017 West Coast Top Prospect Showcase
Tanner O'Brien is a 2018 LHP/1B with a 5-11 170 lb. frame from Huntington Beach, CA who attends Edison HS. Medium build with plenty of room to get stronger. High 3/4's arm slot with an easy loose arm action coming through, short stride out front, good tempo through release. Fastball topped out at 82 mph, should have more velocity in there as he gets stronger, maintained velocity well, can be more aggressive attacking the strike zone with his fastball. Flashed good curveball spin with 12/6 depth when on top of it, tends to lower slot on curveball. Slowed delivery tempo on change up but also showed good feel for the pitch around the strike zone. Has the potential to have a good three-pitch mix with adjustments.
