LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2025 PG Iowa Indoor Showcase
Patrick Hughes is a 2028 RHP/3B/1B with a 6-2 152 lb. frame from North Liberty, IA who attends Clear Creek Amana. Tall, lean build with long levers and plenty of physical projection remaining. Primary right-handed pitcher, worked exclusively from the stretch with a leg lift up to the core. Separates his hands into a longer arm path before accelerating into an extended three-quarters arm angle. Operation is fluid and allows the arm to come through well. Fastball showed occasional cut with some developing signs of life, ultimately peaking at 71 mph. Mixed in a 12-6 curveball as well as a changeup with straight depth to it. Projects for an uptick in velocity as he continues to add strength. Secondary third baseman, gets a decent first step on the baseball and takes proper angles to it. Displayed developing footwork and athleticism with some feel for adjusting the glove. Gets away from his front-side at times when making throws across the diamond. Recorded arm strength up to 73 mph. Right-handed hitter, starts in a wider stance with a high hand set-up and high back elbow. Utilizes a simple stride for timing before working into a level bat path. Displayed rotational swing mechanics with an elongated route to the baseball. Produced softer contact to the middle of the field when timed up. Projects for more power with improved lower-half usage and mechanical refinement. Posted an exit velocity of 67 mph. Ran a 5.82 forty-yard dash. Excellent student.
