LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2003 Midwest Top Prospect Showcase
Wheatley is an "04" RHP from Iowa. At 6'1/190 he is solidly built and looks strong. He showed athletic ability by running a 6.88 - 60. On the mound he opened the doors for college recruiters. He put on a good show including high 80s fastball with good life. With a bit more extension he will become an easy 90+ guy. Perhaps even better than the heater was the sharp biting breaking ball he thows out of a high 3/4 slot. That breaking ball is MLB quality and the fastball is close too. Josh is going to be a real good high level college pitcher with a possible pro future down the road.
