LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2021 Sunshine Gulf Coast Showcase
Lawson Wood is a 2024 RHP/OF with a 6-0 180 lb. frame from Trussville, AL who attends Hewitt-Trussville. Big athletic build with good strength for his age. Quick and clean mechanics on the mound, stays over the rubber well, compact arm action coming through. Fastball worked mostly in the mid-70's, topped out at 79 mph early, mostly straight with occasional cutting action. Breaking ball was his best pitch this day, showed the ability to manipulate the size and speed of the pitch, has tight spin and some sharpness, missed plenty of bats with the pitch and shows feel for locating it. 7.43 runner in the sixty, plays the outfield when not on the mound. Right handed hitter, hits from a straight stance with a tight low hand start, long stride out, uphill with plane with a power approach, looks to pull the ball. Good student.
