LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2021 Fall Connecticut Showcase
Jacob Shehata is a 2023 RHP/1B with a 6-3 181 lb. frame from Hauppauge, NY who attends St. John the Baptist. Long and lean pitcher's build with long arms, lots of room to get stronger. Works from the stretch with a slow paced and fluid delivery, gets good extension out front and repeats his release point well. Fastball worked consistently in the mid-70's, topping out at 77 mph, got nice running life on his fastball and consistently worked it down in the zone. Shaped his breaking ball both as a slider and curveball, most often utilized a slider that he landed very well for strikes, was especially effective with early count sliders. Flashed a change up warming up but didn't use in the game. Strike thrower who challenges hitters and can mix it up, should continue to improve with additional strength. Good student.
