LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2017 National Indoor Showcase
Sam Hanson is a 2018 LHP/1B with a 6-4 230 lb. frame from St Cloud, MN who attends Cathedral HS. Extra large and strong build, pretty mature physically. Has a simple turn and throw delivery that shows his athleticism, repeats it very well and is under control at release, 3/4's arm slot, works quickly and is all business on the mound. Stead low 80's fastball, topped out at 82 mph, gets good arm side running action. Has good depth on his curveball and feel for changing speeds and locating, will shorten it up for harder and shorter slider type break. Didn't throw many change ups but showed feel for that pitch as well. Sequences very well and throws all his pitches for strikes. Left handed hitter with a power pull approach and can hit a mistake a long way when he's on time. Definitely has a spot at the next level with his left handedness and ability to throw strikes with multiple pitches. Good student.
