LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2003 National Showcase
Hildreth is a good sized young man at 6-5, 220, with extra big feet and an intimidating presence on the mound. He throws from a high ¾’s release point and is a bit of a back archer in his delivery. Hildreth’s arm works well and generates good velocity on his fastball, from 85-88 mph in Lincoln. It’s not hard to imagine him throwing harder given his size and strength. Hildreth’s 72 mph curveball had good downer 12 to 6 spin on it, as you would expect from his release point. His change up had effective running action on it at 77 mph. Justin is a very interesting pitching prospect who is also a major college foorball prospect. He's a very good student.
