LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2006 Academic Showcase
Josh Stumpek is a 2007 RHP/1B with a 6'3'', 200 lb. frame from New Milford CT, who attends New Milford HS. He has a big, strong body on a mature frame. Stumpek doesn't use his strong body much in his delivery, as he opens up very early in his delivery and falls off to the first base side well before release. His arm drags behind. Stumpek's fastball was up to 80 mph but mostly in the mid-70's. His best secondary pitch was a 66 mph change up that had good sink and run to it. Stumpek's 60 mph curveball didn't spin much as it is very difficult to throw a curveball with that exaggerated an open delivery. There is more velocity in Stumpek's arm if he can get his strong body closed and more involved in his delivery. He threw with similar mechanics from first base during infield, so he is consistent with it. Stumpek is a very good student.
