LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2005 Atlantic Coast Top Prospect Showcase
Breedlove is a 6-1, 165 lb third baseman from Virginia who also pitches. He has a slender and projectable frame and good overall athletic actions. Breedlove's defensive skills at third base are solid. He moves well side to side and has good arm strength and carry to his throws. He threw 81 mph during infield drills and also ran a 7.31 60. Breedlove is a pull hitter at the plate with a line drive swing and some bat speed. He doesn't have the raw strength to drive the ball hard with wood but makes consistent hard contact. We've seen him the past with the same approach. As a pitcher, Breedlove threw a boring fastball at 80-82 mph and had an effective change up at 70 mph that he commanded well. He has a pause at the top of his delivery that throws hitters off a bit and keeps the ball low in the strike zone. Breedlove's breaking ball is a mid 70's slider that works more like a cutter. Breedlove is also a good student.
