LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2006 California Showcase-Aug 26 & 27
J Daniel Pulfer is a 2008 MIF with a 5'8'', 160 lb. frame from Huntington Beach CA, who attends Marina HS. Named a Top Prospect at this event. Pulfer is a talented and hard nosed player. He is built and programmed for success at the college level and likely beyond that in the long term. He runs, he hits, he plays top notch defense, has feel for the game, and he is a gamer. Pulfer has a strong, compact body type that is well-built for the middle of the diamond. He can handle contact around the bag and still make plays. Offensively he possesses a short, quick swing and drives through contact well, resulting in hard line drives all over the field. He recognizes pitches well out of the pitchers hand and also has a little pop. Pulfer would be capable at either the leadoff spot, two-hole and possibly someday in the three-hole. Defensively he flows to and through the ball real well. He is a bit of a high effort thrower, but he makes plays, to his right, to his left, and coming in. Pulfer's arm strength is suited to 2nd base but he plays shortstop well, with a quick release when needed. He also appears to also have a baseball clock in his head. He really stood out when turning the double play from the 2nd base position. Pulfer runs the bases well and has usable baseball speed. He is a strong student and a talented ballplayer.
