LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2004 Southeast Top Prospect Showcase  
Ian Thomas is a 6'3", 175 lb. left handed pitcher from Virginia Beach, Virginia, with a very athletic pitcher's body with long arms and strong legs. With room to add more strength, he should continue to develop physically. Ian showed an 81-84 mph fastball, 63 mph curveball, and a 68 mph change up. Ian throws from a mid to low 3/4 release point with a little cross body action, and releases the ball way out front. He tends to drop his elbow some on his off speed pitches, which detracts from the quality of his breaking ball. Ian's arm speed is very good on his change up,, and this pitch could develop into a solid high level pitch. Ian has all the ingredients in place to improve significantly and has a very projectable body. He's a DI lefty!
