LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2025 PG National Showcase
Dax Hardcastle is a 2026 1B/RHP with a 6-4 220 lb. frame from Stockton, CA who attends St. Mary's. Extra big and strong athletic build. Primary first baseman on defense who also has two-way potential on the mound. Moves well on defense, big arm strength for first base, threw well from lower slots. 7.12 runner in the sixty. Right handed hitter, sets up in a wide base with a hanging leg raise timer, swings hard with some extension through contact, ball comes off the barrel hard, mostly gap to gap contact, has power potential to further develop. Works from a tall and fall delivery on the mound with limited lower half drive to the plate, medium length arm action to a 3/4's arm slot, stays on line well. Fastball topped out at 94 mph with plenty of four-seam carry. Change up was a nice pitch to left-handers with lots of sink that created swing and miss. Threw a short and tight slider as his breaking ball. Graded out higher on the mound at this event. Good student with a verbal commitment to Mississippi State.
