LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2007 Midwest Top Prospect Showcase
Kyle Morton is a 2007 OF/1B with a 6'3'', 195 lb. frame from Mississauga, ON who attends Meadowvale SS. He has a long limbed, lean build with projectable strength. Morton's tool is his bat. He's a left handed hitter who hits out of a tall stance with hands close to his body. Morton's swing doesn't look especially smooth or powerful but the results are impressive. He tends to take his hands with his body forward and slaps at the ball, but he has very strong hands and the ball really carries well off his bat. Morton handles the bat head well and squares up well against different types of pitches. He hit some balls to centerfield that really carried well and more strength will just add to his power. Morton plays both outfield and first base and may end up at first base in the future. He has pretty good speed at 7.21 but has left field actions at best.
