LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2016 Northwest Showcase
Reid Rasmussen is a 2019 LHP/1B/OF with a 6-2 155 lb. frame from Selah, WA who attends Selah HS. Long and lean athletic build, projects well physically. Mullti-part drop and drive delivery, lots going on and not always easy to repeat especially in direction to release, high 3/4's arm slot, medium effort on release. Fastball topped out at 81 mph, gets outstanding running life on it, tends to miss arm side when his arm is late coming through but stays down in the zone well, movement created lots of weak swings. Maintains good arm speed on curveball with a 12/6 downer shape. Settled into a grove after a while and repeated his mechanics better, ended up with 8 strikeouts in 3 innings. Key will be developing consistency in his delivery, will throw harder as he matures physically. 7.38 runner who should good athleticism on defense at first base. Right handed hitter, leans back and looks to lift with a long and extended swing. Interesting left handed pitcher to follow. Very good student.
