LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2024 Puerto Rico National Showcases Qualifier
Jarivier O. Maldonado Cardona is a 2028 OF/LHP with a 6-1 165 lb. frame from Arecibo, PR. Long and lanky young build with lots of growing ahead, could end up being a big young man. 7.10 runner in the sixty. Primary outfielder on defense, still getting comfortable with his footwork into the ball, young crow hop into his throws, arm strength still developing. Right handed hitter, flashed some impact on line drives to the middle of the field once he got timed up, swung the bat well in the games with hard mid field to opposite field contact, impressive handling the barrel for such a young hitter. Also pitched, works from the stretch with a long windmill type arm action. Fastball topped out at 75 mph with some arm side life, also threw a soft 11/5 curvebal, did a good job throwing strikes and competing on the mound.
