LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2017 World Showcase
Derek Rascher is a 2018 RHP/SS with a 6-2 173 lb. frame from Naples, FL who attends Palmetto Ridge HS. Young slender build, lots of room to get stronger. Compact arm action in back, hides the ball well from the hitters, extended 3/4's arm slot from a rotational delivery, short stride out front, limited lower half use. Mid-70's fastball, topped out at 77 mph, has been up to 84-85 mph frequently at summer PG events, gets good sinking life on his fastball. Sweeping curveball gets hitters reaching on the outside half. Would like to see when he's at full arm strength. Good student.
