LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2017 Jr. National Showcase
Benjamin Chestnutt is a 2019 RHP with a 6-2 170 lb. frame from Debary, FL who attends The Master's Academy. Medium athletic build with lots of room to get stronger. Very long arm stroke in back with a high takeaway, swings his leg around into his delivery and occasionally loses direction, medium effort release. Mid-80's fastball, topped out at 87 mph, mostly straight, works down well in the zone with his fastball. Good feel for his curveball with 11/5 shape and a shorter, tight break. Slowed his arm a bit on his change up, mostly straight. Has the tools to continue to improve with additional strength. Good student.
