LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2018 14U South Showcase
Cody Janner is a 2022 C/OF with a 5-8 140 lb. frame from Longview, TX who attends Pine Tree. Young, athletic frame with square shoulder and a lean, projectable build with room to fill throughout moving forward. Ran a 7.93 60-yard dash. Primary catcher, receives the ball out front with a compact crouch behind the plate, gets tall coming out of stance and stays tall at release, can continue to implement additional lower half in gaining ground, short arm action on throws down, arm strength will continue to develop. Graded out higher defensively in this look from the outfield, takes shorter steps moving towards the ball and works through it well, strides slightly open with front side, does a nice job of fielding the ball out front and working to an on line arm action, worked around the intended bag with throws. Righthanded hitter, begin with a high hand set and a low back elbow at the plate; limited lower half shift moving into contact. Utilizes a contact oriented approach at the plate, linear path with a shorter stroke through the zone. Upper body dominant swing, showed a handle for the barrel in game, gets to front side early at times, can create additional extension out front in swing. Very good student.
