LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2023 13U/14U Mid-Atlantic Showcase
Jake Clayton is a 2027 SS/RHP/MIF/OF with a 5-8 165 lb. frame from Pt. Pleasant, NJ who attends Point Pleasant Borough. Clayton works from a medium athletic build with strength present throughout. As a primary SS, he showcased a deep fielding funnel with clean actions and flashes of lateral range to get to spots and make plays asked of him. He topped out at 79 mph across the diamond from a lower slot that remained the same throughout the round. From the OF, Clayton again displayed some developing arm strength up to 82 mph, working through the ball well with a compact arm stroke. Offensively, the righty started from an even balanced base with a tight hand set and simple leg lift trigger that generated loud impact gap to gap at times. The stroke was loose and easy with evident strength in the hands, posting an exit velo of 88 mph. Good student. Named to Top Prospect List.
