LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2021 East Cobb Showcase
Caleb Fones is a 2023 LHP/1B with a 6-0 190 lb. frame from Sugar Hill, GA who attends Lanier. Primary left-handed pitcher with a medium frame and solid build. Closed feet set with hands at waist out of the stretch. Push down arm action behind to a 3/4 slot with a cross-body delivery to the plate. Hides the ball well from his slot and delivery with fastball up to 80 mph and curveball in the low-60s. Flashed a changeup for a solid third offering around 68 mph. Feel to command three pitches and mix speeds with a deceptive delivery. Secondary position first base with good actions around the bag. Throws across at 77 mph with a quicker release and slightly lower slot when making the turn. Made throws from the outfield with a clean gather and good flow through the ball up to 78 mph. Pretty accurate from both positions on throws with athletic actions. Left-handed hitter with a wide base and heel to sky trigger. Separation to a high back elbow slot and linear bat path through the zone. Upper-half dominant swing with impact to the pull side when he gets barrel out front. Good student.
Named to the East Cobb Showcase Top Prospect List.
